Regardless of when you get reimbursed, this is almost certainly considered fraud - submitting/expensing a flight you are no longer taking. Also 110% unethical. Some employers might be nice and give you a warning on a first offense - many will consider this a firing event without a warning.

also, people can often figure out things you might not think they would know, especially when you’re blinded by trying to pull a fast one. Different strokes for different folks, of course, but personally Id advise that unless you are self-employed, it’s probably a good idea to straighten this out with your employer.

pretty sure canceling a segment like that requires a re-issue.

Depending on the rules of the OPs ticket, there may also be a fare difference - while many especially domestic fares are one way, so it wouldn’t, there are still some that aren’t. If the latter is the case, you’d need to pay a fare difference to the one way fare. This might be a minor expense, or might not. YMMV.
