Depending on how she got the additional "money" it is a theft. She took, without permission, money from someone. If she quickly reimburses him and apologizes, he may not complain to the police, but you may be in danger of losing your job unless you can convince him that you had no knowledge she was going to steal from him and you were the one who got her to repay him.
