Chapter 257: Lunch Gathering
The next day, Miguel booked the whole restaurant for the family lunch gathering he initiated. No one was allowed to enter except a member of the Ivankov Clan. Surprisingly, Miguel didn’t invite Dmitri to this family gathering.
"Grandpa, I want to eat seafood!" Kimmy excitedly blurted out while holding her grandpa’s hand. They’ve just entered the restaurant.
"Sure. You can eat everything you want!" Miguel gently patted Kimmy’s head.
Ten men in black stayed outside the restaurant, staying on guard. Lanny and Aaron were following Miguel and Kimmy from behind. The Chef and his assistants welcomed them at the entrance door.
"Welcome to our restaurant, Don Miguel!" The staff greeted them in unison.
The four of them headed to the second floor where the food was being served. There was a big round table at the center and six available seats. Miguel sat down first followed by Kimmy who chose to sit next to her grandpa.
Meanwhile, Lanny continued observing her father. She was puzzled as to why Miguel gathered them in that place.
’Damn, Vladimir! He is late again!’ Lanny cursed her brother inwardly. She felt a little bit tense. She could tell that the sly old man was up to something.
On the other hand, Aaron looked sad as he took his seat. Miguel also noticed that Aaron was unusually quiet today.
"Grandson, what’s wrong? Why are you so quiet? Aren’t you happy that we have a family gathering today?" Miguel asked the little boy.
"Grandpa, where is Aunt Athena? I thought this was a family gathering. She should be here as well. Why did you exclude her grandpa? She is part of our family, right?" Aaron expressed his disappointment after knowing that Athena wasn’t invited to today’s gathering.
Miguel frowned when he heard that. Then he shifted his gaze from Aaron to Lanny. Lanny bit her lower lip since she didn’t expect that Aaron would bring this up.
