Frank's suggestion sounds so perfect that it makes me smile for a moment as I nod but only a few seconds later, I shake my head with a frown. "Are you sure this is going to work?" I ask.

"You obviously can't do this here at the party but trust me, this has to work," he says to me.

"Why are you so sure?"

"Just so we're clear, I'm not saying Vanessa's going to forgive you, but it's going to be a start and that's what we want, right?"

I sigh. "I guess you could say that."

"I'm glad we're on the same page. Now, when the opportunity presents itself, that's when you're going to do it."

I nod, patting him on the back as I say, "Once again, you've proven to be of good use to me."

"And one of these days, you'll also be of good use to me. Now, let's just go and order that food. You know the gorgeous ladies are waiting!"

As we make our way back to the rest of the crowd, I glance at our table and Vanessa is still taking shots like crazy.

"I admit that I love seeing Vanessa like this," Frank says. "At the same time, all that whiskey is going to fuck her up but hey, no big deal because you're here."

"She doesn't even want me to take care of her."

"But you know that it doesn't matter because at the end of the day, you'll still be right there taking care of her. Honestly if I were her, I wouldn't even be here right now. In fact, I would've gone far away!" "Then it's a good thing you're not her."

He chuckles, then suddenly turns serious. "Hey, what are you going to do about Carmella?"

"What do you mean?"

"Are you just going to let her get away with this?"
