Chapter 217:
Theo eagerly awaited Liam’s indignant response. However, much to his astonishment, the eyes of the Black Dragon Gang members sparkled when they heard the offer of 200 dollars a day.
In recent years, with Inewood intensifying its crackdown on crime, these petty criminals had largely abandoned serious illegal activities, scraping by primarily through providing security services. For them, a daily rate of 200 dollars was highly appealing. Before Liam could even respond, his men had eagerly accepted the job.
Observing his crew’s excitement, Liam offered no resistance. He even gave a respectful nod and said, “Thank you, Miss Campbell p>
Theo and his group were left speechless, astounded by how swiftly the Black Dragon Gang had agreed to the terms. At that moment, everyone shared the same disbelief. The world had indeed turned upside down.
If Liam hadn’t been present, Theo might have questioned whether these men truly belonged to the infamous Black Dragon Gang.
Once the agreement was made, the gang members showed clear signs of enthusiasm. Liam noticed that Theo and other members of the Campbell family were looking to cause trouble.
He raised his voice and declared, “Alright, boys, no time to waste. Let’s start working for Miss Campbell! But first, we need to clear out the trash so Miss Campbell won’t be bothered by it p>
Understanding Liam’s intent, the gang members quickly encircled Theo and his group. Before Theo had a chance to react, he and his group were promptly ejected from the site.
Despite the pain from his injuries, Liam threw himself into his work with unrelenting energy. He was determined to prove his sincerity beyond any doubt. He not only tackled the dirtiest and most difficult tasks but also kept himself constantly occupied, refusing to take even a moment’s rest.
As Rosalie observed Liam’s genuine efforts, her initial wariness toward him gradually began to fade.

After a long and exhausting day, Liam dismissed his men and, with a warm smile, approached Ashton and Rosalie. Grinning, he said, “Thank you both for giving me this chance to start over. To show my gratitude, I’d like to invite you to dinner. Would you be willing to join me?” Ashton nodded. Seeing him agree, Rosalie didn’t refuse either.
With both of them accepting his invitation, Liam was thrilled at first, but then he hesitated, feeling a little embarrassed.
“Since I’ve decided to turn over a new leaf, I don’t want to touch any dirty money anymore. I would like to treat you with today’s wage, but I only have 200 dollars. It might not be enough for a fancy restaurant. I hope you don’t mind p>
Ashton shook his head, a smile playing on his lips. “It’s just a meal, nothing to fuss over. We can eat wherever you like p>
Rosalie chimed in, “I’ve heard about a cozy diner close by that serves great home-style cooking. I have been meaning to check it out. How about we go there?” Guided by Rosalie, the three of them made their way to a small restaurant nearby.
The place was alive with activity, its reputation for delicious food drawing in crowds. By the time they arrived, the restaurant was already packed to capacity. With no other choice, the trio found themselves settling at a small table outside the restaurant.
