After waiting for Selena for some time and Ivy saw that Gabe had finished his coffee, Ivy decided that it was time to have lunch.
She had offered him a cup of coffee a while ago in an attempt to buy some time for Selena, but it seemed she wouldn't be back anytime soon.
Initially, they had both decided that Selena stepped out to buy something and would be back soon, but seeing as she wasn't back yet and was still not taking her calls, Ivy decided that she couldn't keep their guest hungry until then. They had to eat without Selena since they had no idea where she was or when she would return.
It was up to her to keep Gabe entertained and satisfied until Selena returned since Gabe was there on her invitation.
After the work she had put in trying to get hold of Gabe and getting him to come down to surprise Selena, there was no way she was going to let him go without meeting Selena.
