The Accountant novel Chapter 25

And to think she was cursing her gift a few years back. Now, she was thanking the man above.

She shouldn't be this nervous, surely, Dominic had done dangerous things before. He was the mafia king for God's sake. Her stomach lurched at the thought.

"This algorithm is accurate, right?" It was a good diversion as any. Dinara's piqued curiosity made Beau's anxiety vanished. For a time.

"Yes. As you can see, I've

set up instructions and formulas that take an input, A, and provide an output, B, that changes the data involved if movements are detected. We got all 1 thousand square meters covered. I have also hacked NASA's satellite station. And look," She pointed out detailed surveillance of the target area. Movements of people inside the perimeter were seen milling about.  Mostly men with guns. People inside their homes visible through thermal scans.

Blue-violet eyes widened with excitement and awe. "You really are a genius, sis," Dinara uttered.

She shrugged her shoulders at the compliment. "It is a child's play for me. I had this all figured out since I was a teenager. I'm glad it's of use now."

"And we can use this anywhere in the world?"

"Yes. Anywhere in the world." The genius accountant murmured back absentmindedly, occupied with the guerillas, Dominic's enemies. Her number one priority was to keep him safe. It doesn't matter if he had done this several times. He had to come home with not so much as a scratch.

"By the way, Beau. Are you hungry? Maman said to make sure you eat anything you want." Her family was really something. This unborn child will be smothered with love when he comes out.

"Yeah. I want a blueberry cheesecake. I don't want it baked. I hate the smell of the oven and order everything on the Chinese menu." Beau answered softly. She really adored her sister-in-law. And the feeling was mutual.

Dinara nodded and left the library silently. Happy to please. She watched Dominic's energetic sister go then went back to work.

Beau's eyes were glued to the screen. Any moment now, Dominic's battle-ready men will have the area surrounded,

On the ground, she saw movements inside the 10x10 bunker. Based on the thermal impression, it was going downward. It was an underground tunnel. Shit! She doesn't have to be a genius to know what was happening.

They were escaping. Someone must have tipped them off.

Dominic's party was in motion yet a few minutes away. ETA should be 10 minutes and the enemies would be long gone.

Dominic has to know. Opening their private comms...

"Detka,"

"They are escaping." She hissed. No time for niceties. "There's an underground tunnel at a bunker south of the property. And someone must have tipped him off. Be careful."

Dominic growled savagely and begun to give out orders to Alec. Breathe bated, she watched their every movement on the screen.

SUVs were accelerated and guns were being primed.

"We are almost at the property, Beau."

"Yes. I can see you. Take care. I will be your eyes and ears." Knowing what was about to happen made her frustrated. She had never felt so inadequate.

What else could she do? It was a sure bet those people will have their escape covered to a tee. Possibly even a plane waiting for them.

Triangulation analysis.

Yes! With her resources, she would be able to pinpoint their enemy's destination. Eyes locked on the screen, hands dancing on the keyboard, she began to type codes, rapidly accessing the world's advanced GPS.

Perfectly arched brows scrunched in concentration, she was mentally tracing measurement of a series network of triangles in order to determine the distances and relative positions of points spread over territory, especially southeast of the area. Measuring the length of one side of each triangle and deducing its angles and the length of the other two sides by observation from this baseline. And she hit enter.

Beau was right there was a private plane waiting at a private tarmac.

A clear picture of where they were headed shown on the screen.

Stunned speechless. Her whole body stilled.

San Francisco, CA

The enemies had one goal.

"Dominic, come home now."
