"Oh that's easy to explain." Alexi said as a waiter came in with food and drinks from him.
The whole room went silent as they waited for the waiter to leave again.
Cedric was puzzled by the silence, it seemed that whoever Mien's father was he was someone important.
So important that both Alexi and Ram chose not to speak about him around people they didn't trust.
"Sorry about that awkward silence." Alexi said as he cut the steak in front of him and poured himself a glass of wine. "I haven't had lunch and I'm starving."
"Your assistant didn't fetch you food?" Cedric asked.
"Well, I had to fire my assistant and I am looking for a new one." Alexi explained. "Care to send one of yours over?" He teased Cedric.
"Of course not." Cedric said with a laugh. "Anyway, continue."
"Continue on what?" Alexi asked as he placed a piece of steak in his mouth.
