"Calm down; we can't call the cops; how many times must I tell you that?" I was busy trying to find a tow company to come to remove the burnt-out hull of a car from the driveway before Felix got home. I knew as soon as Victoria's car went missing that it was going to involve the Russos in one way or another and was afraid to act.
Never in a million years would I ever expect to be in this position. The position of having the most powerful family in town going against my daughter and I when we've never even met them except for in passing, and that very rarely. We've had no dealings with each other until now, and this is not the way I would've liked things to be between us.
Now, instead of an invitation to one of those fancy teas the wife throws that everyone is always gushing about, everyone who's lucky enough to be invited, that is, I'm being ostracized and looked down on by the son and threatened by the other men in the family. How long before things start to unravel?
