Liliana was in a good mood today. Her company recommended her to be a hostess for this banquet. She was paid $500 for five hours which was a lot by her standards.
As a person with a 'questionable' profession, she had to plan her every move just to pay back her debts. LA was a cruel place for people with ambitions, it first lures you in with sweet talks, and the next thing you know, you are struggling to put food on the table.
Being a beautiful woman in such an environment was never easy; the higher one wanted to climb, the more strongly people would pull you down.
Her family circumstances were also 'special'. So, there needed to be more support from them.
Moreover, the organizers also promised that the food inside could be distributed among the staff after the banquet.
