Chapter 23

The Gilberts were having a peaceful dinner, after a while, Mr Gilbert stood up, dragged out his seat and walked away while the others continued eating.

They stood up one after the other until the dinning was empty. They all occupied sofas as each of them were busy with one thing or the other.

Mr Gilbert looked at each of them with the corner of his eyes and saw they weren't ready for the discussion, so he held his peace and continued watching the football match, football has been his favorite thing for a long time and he is not ready to let go.

Andrew was getting suffocated and over crowded due to the presence of everybody, then he stood up and adjusted his shirt.

"Good night Dad and Mom." He greeted, the couple exchanged glances.

"You can't go now, we need to discuss something as a family." Mr Gilbert spoke up. Andrew knitted his brows together, Anthony, Adam and Nancy expressed shock.

"But Dad, you didn't inform us about it and you can't just set up a meeting all of a sudden."
