Skylar couldn't help but think that only a generous fool like Tobias would frequent a restaurant like this, as money was merely a number to him.
She, on the other hand, was the total opposite of Tobias. Unlike him, she would never choose to pay a lump sum upfront when installment options were available. She preferred to pay bit by bit, even if it meant incurring some interest along the way.
She had the impression that the restaurant would not attract many customers due to its high prices. However, she soon realized how naive she was when lunchtime arrived.
There were many wealthy people around, but she was not one of them.
Skylar had thought that she could be considered as a bourgeoisie if she had not lost that much money. However, she would still be far from achieving true wealth.
Throughout her career, Skylar's salary had never been particularly high. Her company would deduct a significant portion of her earnings as commission. Despite her popularity, she also needed good resources to sustain her success, and investors would always try to negotiate for lower fees.
In reality, Skylar's salary was quite meager. Even her endorsement with Gucci was limited to just one season.
The market demand was heavily influenced by the audience's preferences, and unfortunately, due to the disappointing box office performance of her film, “The Ballad of 1978,” Skylar's endorsement for the following season was canceled by the brand.
Rumor had it that Gucci was planning to select a new spokesperson from Royal Entertainment for the next season, and they were considering Saorise.
Mackayla noticed that Skylar, with a mask on, was hesitating outside the restaurant. Noticing Skylar's indecision, Mackayla asked, “Skylar, don't you love Jetroinian cuisine?”
Skylar often found it difficult to reject others because she didn't want to spoil the mood or come across as a party pooper.
Thus, she linked her arm with Mackayla's and walked into the Jetroinian restaurant together.
It happened to be lunchtime, and the restaurant was bustling with customers. Both men and women who patronized the place were very well-dressed, and each of them exuded a regal aura.
Mackayla said under her breath, “It's a trending venue. Many online influencers will check in here. The female ones will also take a crazy load of pictures, eat, and let the guys watching their live stream channel pay for their meals.”
