With a last click of the mouse Susan Richards was finished with transfering the last of the $75 million from the FE accounts.  The extra over the $60 million was to pay various transfer fees and a just in case fund.  Since she had no wish to explain giving that much money (or any money really) to a porn studio she had to be a bit creative with the accounting.  She'd increased the amounts of a number of other settlement payments for property damage caused by the F4, mainly Ben and Johny, and funneled the money through shell corporations, eventually making its way into a holding company. 

The  holding company, Sapphire Holdings was in turn owned by a string of shell corporations that eventually ended up pointing to Suzanne Sanford.  Her Suzanne persona was listed as the President of the company and therefor had legal control of the day to day operations.  The Holding company then used $60 million to purchase 40% of the Studio, thereby giving Susan, or rather Suzy her legal say in the studio business. 

It was an impressive house of cards to both hide where the money came from and how Suzy has that much money.  She was slightly concerned the IRS would become interested in where the money came from and cause problems for her Suzy persona.

In the last few days while working out the money transfers Susan had started to feel oddly excited and optomistic about her new status as CFO of the studio.  There were quite a few improvements she wanted to suggest.  During her time with the studio she hadn't stuck to just performing in front of the camera.  She had volunteered to help people and departments out when they needed a helping hand.  She'd done everything from fluffing the male porn stars between scenes to keep them hard to lighting, makeup, and post production editing. 

Now she was in a position to fix some of the issues she had seen.  It was odd how her feelings had slowly turned around over the last few days.  She'd started out feeling resigned to having to remain working for the studio, but also determined not to be taken advantage of and have some say in the projects she worked on. 

Over the last few days each day she woke up she seemed just a little more enthusiastic as she thought of things she could improve at the studio and was looking forward to going back to get started.  Part of her enthusiasm might also come from talking over the phone to Heather about some of the things she wanted to change. 

Heather had been so excited hearing about the changes and that excitement seemed to have been contagious as Suzy became excited also about her new job within the studio.  She'd already talked to Heather about the possibility of her signing a contract with the studio. 

Suzy would go in to finalize the paperwork with Megan tommorow.  She'd also be shown her new office at the studio.  One of the first things she would have to do would be to pick out a personal assistant.  She was already looking forwad to it.
