In the afternoon, at the Pollard residence, James was conducting a final pop quiz on Angelo to make sure he'd gotten all the details about the Mintons down pat. Only then did he set aside the ruler he’d been holding and said, "Alright, you're good."
Angelo eyed the ruler, feeling a wave of relief wash over him. "I told you, I'm a quick study... Took me less than three hours to get it all down."
"Thick-skinned, aren’t you?" James didn’t even bother looking up. "Now, figure out a way to keep Sandy from seeing Vanessa these next few days. Wait until the engagement party to bring your sister along."
Angelo sat across from James, puzzled. "You want me to keep them apart?"
"Exactly."
"But they're best friends, practically inseparable since their time abroad," Angelo mused. "They had a spat over Odie, but I know Sandy. If Vanessa sincerely apologizes, Sandy will forgive her. She wasn’t that into Odie anyway..."
"That’s precisely why they can’t meet."
James’s words made Angelo pause. "You don’t want them to make up, do you?"
"Vanessa got with Odie for her own gain. She knows it would hurt your sister, but she did it anyway. If they meet now, Vanessa could easily smooth things over with your gullible sister. As her brother, can you really stand by and let your sister be friends with someone like that?"
Angelo frowned, processing this. "James, I might be slow at times, but I'm not stupid! You're not looking out for my sister. You want to use her to cause a scene at the engagement party, don't you?"
