âMom...?â Winding her way through the penthouse, Cici made her way to where her mother was. âYou and Dad will be okay if I miss the New Yearâs party, right? Emmaâs uncle is sending her to Vermont to ski following the holiday and I was thinking of going along...â Because of course Chuck was giving Emma a ski trip -- putting her and whatever friends wanted to tag along up in one of his many hotels. Because if Emma was skiing in Vermont, she wasnât partying in Manhattan. Wasnât going down the same road her mother, Chuckâs sister, once did.Â
âI mean...nothing is Manhattan on New Yearâs Eve. But hot ski boys? Definitely help to dull the disappointment.â
