We have suggested that it would make Senator Cosby very happy since this case would be a career maker. ” Lisa looked concerned. “ You misunderstand ma ’ am. Bruce Cosby is an abysmal FBI agent. ” Lisa chuckled. “ The only reason he has a job is because of who his father is. He should have the case in his hands by the end of the next week at the latest. ” Lisa frowned.
“ Why so long? ” She asked.
Agent McDonald flipped through the file. “ Let ’ s see. It is currently in the hands of a team that hasn ’ t closed a case in three years. Huh. ” Lisa raised her eyebrow. Agent McDonald smiled and waved off her worry. “ Oh it gets better. The team hasn ’ t solved a case since John Fowler left them three years ago to deal with his wife ’ s death. Rumor is he became an alcoholic while he was deep undercover, and has become a full-fledge drunk now. The two remaining agents are apparently on the verge of being reassigned. Here ’ s where it gets really interesting. The team has pulled this guy back in as a consultant. Can you believe it?? ” Agent McDonald was smiling as he read off this information to Lisa. As he raised his head and saw her face, he knew trouble was brewing. Lisa looked ready to explode.
“ John Fowler?? The former FBI agent who helped bring down some 40 plus Mafia members a few years back!?!? That John Fowler!?!!?!?!? ” Lisa was livid. Agent McDonald was nodding, but was holding his hand out trying his best to calm her.
“ Ma ’ am, please calm down. This guy hasn ’ t done anything in the past three years. This entire unit is on the verge of being reassigned. ” Lisa was anything but calm.
“ AGENT MCDONALD . . . ” Lisa stopped and composed herself. “ Agent McDonald, do you realize that Senator Cosby has used John Fowler to make himself one of the most popular senator s in the United States!?! Every time there is any bust that John is involved with Cosby glues himself to Fowler ’ s side to up his approval rating. He has basically thrown his own son under the bus for this guy. John Fowler is the best there is!!! You do realize if Fowler hadn ’ t left the FBI, Cosby probably would not have pulled out of the p resident al race? Cosby would have won the blasted election because of his relationship with John Fowler! Cosby knows he ’ s a winner. Cosby only surrounds himself with winners!! ” McDonald was looking very uncomfortable and was starting to wish he was anywhere else right that moment. “ Agent, let me make this very clear. 25% of John Fowler is better than 100% of most agents. ” Lisa stopped and drew a deep breath. She stood up, looked Agent McDonald in the face and spoke very quietly. “ Get that case out of John Fowler ’ s hands. NOW!!!!!!!!!!! ” Agent McDonald ran from the room. Lisa sat back down at her desk her head in her hands.
Chapter 19
Lisa sat at her desk thinking about the newest development. She was sick to her stomach. Senator Cosby would have easily won the last election if John hadn ’ t left the FBI. Her dreams would have been over with before they even started. The dreams she had since she was a very little girl. She wasn ’ t President of the United States, but she was the f irst l ady, and as far as issues she cared about, she ran the country. The people didn ’ t need to know all of that, but the fact she knew it was enough.
She had worked so hard to make her dreams come true and now this John Fowler could come so close to derailing them; it unnerved her. She stared out the window. She was going to have to do something about Cosby. She had her best people digging into his history and the only thing she could find
