Chapter 318 "Ms. Valerie." Eliza peered through the peephole. It was Carlos.

What was he doing here so late? "Mr. Carlos, is there something you need?" Eliza's voice wasn't exactly warm, but it was polite enough.

Carlos grinned awkwardly and apologized, "I might have been a bit forward at school today. I hope you don't hold it against me. But the art competition about construction workers is really meaningful. It can help improve their working conditions and maybe even raise their wages." Not this again.

How could this be the sruthless, cunning, proud, powerful, and wealthy man? It couldn't be Casper. Just someone who looked like him.

Still, she wanted to see for herself.

"Mr. Carlos, why don't you signup too? Tomorrow is the weekend; we can visit the construction site together. I'd like to see the workers' conditions for myself. What do you think?" en Carlos thought it was a great idea.

Excitedly, he nodded. "Sure, I'll cby to pick you up tomorrow, and we'll go together." "Okay." Carlos was about to take back the drawing when Eliza tightened her grip on it. "Mr. Carlos, this is really good. Could you give me?" We Can Build the DAR Encryption Solution Tailore...
