The question is does Mab still want payback from Namshiel.

A thought just hit me as I was walking the dogs around the park.  Maybe Mab wants to marry Harry off to Lara so she can feed on him and weaken him.  This way she still has an effective Knight, but his power is kept in check so he is less likely to defy her.

Unlikely. She will need all his power the coming years and she is quite sure she can handle him. Everything points to Mab arranging Harry to become even more powerful. Maybe even immortal.

Dina:
I agree with Arjan, Mab prefers a powerful Harry.

Maybe that was what you meant, but that night also had the bonus of there being allmost no one who had to be saved from their own evil. Allmost like shooting zombies.

My best guess is that Mab most definitely wants payback from Namshiel, but she's made an investment in Marcone.  He's useful to Mab's plans. However, the thing about any investment; whether it's a financial or a business asset, is that eventually it get's used up, fully depreciated, depleted, scrapped or cashed out.  If Marcone insists on holding onto his new partnership with Namshiel, Mab won't protect him from the consequences of his actions.

Plus, Marcone has made the same bet that he will remain in charge of all of his decisions; that Thorned Namshiel will remain the junior partner in their deal, that Nicodemus has claimed he has with Anduriel.  If we see Marcone start to make questionable decisions, I mean decisions that run counter to the Marcone we know, it may be a sign that Marcone is losing his bet and it will be a time when Mab starts to think that Marcone's value to her has been seriously diminished, that maybe it's time to write him off.
