Marielaâs words seemed to tickle Macyâs fancy.
She glanced at Mariela with a disdainful look.

Skyla took the menu, remembering Laurynâs directive to stir up trouble for Mariela. Without any hesitation, she pointed to several items on the menu, saying. This, this, and this.â
The waiter stood by, noting down the dishes.
Skyla had chosen three of the most expensive signature dishes.
Just these three dishes cost over a thousand dollars.
