The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 371

Chapter 371 

Boom, boom, boom…. 

Haylan’s heart was beating uncontrollably. 

It was because it was mesmerizing! 

It had been almost a month since he had engaged in sex. Seeing this, he felt a mild heat throughout his body, and his throat and lips became a little dry. 

He really wanted to remind Reign that she was not wearing something on the inside. 

However, he did not know how to bring up such an intimate topic. He could only cough a few times and say, “Um, Ms. Labenz. I need to use the bathroom.” 

She looked up, brushed the long hair off her forehead, and said, “It’s on the right side at the end of the hallway.” 

He quickly left the room and headed toward the bathroom. 

She was so beautiful, with an incredibly impressive figure. Just the sight of her 36D bust could captivate many men’s 

attention. 

If he had stayed any longer, he might not have been able to control himself. 

She glanced at his departing figure and revealed a meaningful smile. 

She reached out and touched the green dragon pendant on her neck, her gaze becoming very gentle. With a smile, she continued brewing coffee. 

“Wait a minute! Bathroom?” she thought to herself. 

All of a sudden, a realization struck her. Her gaze swiftly turned toward the bathroom, and a faint blush appeared on her 

face. 

She remembered that she had carelessly hung her personal clothing on the hook inside the bathroom after taking a shower. 

Thus, once he entered the bathroom, he would be able to see the clothes she had taken off earlier. 

Most importantly, she had not washed the clothes yet, meaning it would be incredibly embarrassing if he saw them. 

“Wait a minute! Clothes!” 

In an instant, she froze, her head dropping down swiftly. Her cheeks reddened with embarrassment, and she instinctively covered her face, longing to vanish at that very moment. 

Having become accustomed to living alone, she had developed a habit of not wearing undergarments, finding comfort in a carefree and relaxed state. 

Today, she was too focused on her investigation, forgetting to put on that piece of clothing. 

Right now, she wondered if he had seen everything underneath when she had bent over earlier. 

Thinking about it, her heart pounded even faster as she felt an unusual sense of shyness despite being a cold person in general. 

However, as a CEO, she faced many challenging problems daily, so this momentary embarrassment quickly subsided, and she regained her composure. 

“Alright then. After all, he caught a glimpse of it when I was showering at Yvonne’s place before. And he saw it in the jungle too. Well, it’s no big deal. It’s not like I have anything to lose.” 

With this thought, she felt a sense of tranquility within herself. 

After all, he had saved her. While she had no intention to submit herself to him, she did not mind allowing him to have a few peeks, which might be considered tokens of gratitude. 

She finished brewing the coffee, stood up, went to her bedroom, and put on a spare set of clothes. Then she returned and enjoyed her coffee calmly and peacefully as if nothing had happened. 

Even the blush on her face gradually faded away. 

However, inside the bathroom, he found himself blushing. 

After all, he found her intimate clothes hanging inside the bathroom. 

Besides, the size was simply amazing! 

“I didn’t know Ms. Labenz was so messy in her personal life. She always looks so organized on the outside.” 

He looked at the clothes in front of him, not knowing what to say. 

 

But upon some consideration, he found it understandable. 

Considering her busy work schedule and the fact that she lived alone in a large courtyard without anyone to look after her. it was understandable that she was a bit untidy in her personal life. 

During his time as the Mercenary King overseas, whenever he had exhausting days, he would simply crash and fall asleep as soon as he returned to the base. 

Not to mention tidying up the room, even if there were cockroaches, mice, and piles of garbage in the room, he could still fall asleep. 

When a person was exhausted to the extreme, they stop caring about anything and simply fall asleep. 

Moreover, most people tend to be themselves and do as they please when they were alone. Right now, it appeared to him that she had the same mindset. 

However, when he was using the bathroom and looking at the clothes hanging in front of him, he still felt slightly uncomfortable. 

However, he could not go out right away. 

He figured it would make them both uncomfortable if he returned before she could put on some undergarments. 

After using the bathroom and rinsing his hands, he sat on the toilet and lit a cigarette. 

He wanted to give her time to put on her clothes, to avoid any awkwardness for both of them. 

While smoking, he also listened carefully. He waited until he had heard her returning from her bedroom. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and extinguish the cigarette. 

Just as he was about to throw the butt into the bin, on second thought, he rinsed it with water to ensure it would not reignite. After disposing of it, he opened the window for ventilation to ensure the smoke dissipated. Afterward, he washed his hands and walked out. 

She greeted him, saying, “Mr. Jaber, you’ve come a long way. Come, have a cup of coffee.” 

“Thank you. I just happen to be thirsty.” 

He felt relieved when he saw that she had already put on undergarments. He took the cup of coffee, lowered his head, and observed. 

The coffee had a subtle dark color, emitting a fragrance of almonds and chocolate. 

He sniffed it again, and the aroma was pleasant. 

“What kind of coffee powder did you use?” he asked. 

“It’s a local specialty from Xina. Arabica coffee beans. I bought them from a friend who knows coffee very well. Give it a try.” 

she said. 

He took a sip and found the coffee to be rich in flavor, with a hint of almond and chocolate on his taste buds. The taste was subtle, elegant, and lingering. 

At the same time, it carried a pleasant bitterness, 

“Good coffee!” 

He savored it carefully, then put down the coffee cup and said with much satisfaction, “This coffee powder is really good. They must be expensive, right?”
