The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 742

Chapter 742

The coffee had a beautiful brown color and a pleasant aroma.

And there was a cup with some coffee powder on the table.

As a coffee lover. Reign also had many expensive coffee beans in her office.

The coffee she drank the most was Arabica coffee. However, she had some knowledge about all the other kinds of coffee as well and could immediately identify the coffee Bernard served her was the precious Saint Burdi.

She sat down with a smile. Instead of drinking the coffee, she praised the man, “I didn’t expect you to know anything about the Longhard Kingdom’s coffee. I’m really impressed.”

Bernard smiled happily as he said, “I still have niany things that will impress you in the future.”

“Oh? Do you know a lot about the Longhard Kingdom’s culture? Reign asked curiously.

“Though I’m from the Whileal Kingdom, I’m interested in the Longhard Kingdom’s culture and I’ve learned quite a bit on my own.”

Bernard put on a gentlemanly smile and said to Reign, “Come, try this. My coffee won’t disappoint you.”

It would be ungracious to deny his great hospitality. Therefore, Reign could only give it a try and take a sip.

The coffee was smooth in the mouth and had an enjoyable balance of flavors where sweetness and acidic notes worked perfectly well together.

Reign’s eyes lit up and complimented sincerely, “Mr. Bernard, your coffee tastes really good. You make better coffee than many Longhard Kingdom people.”

When Bernard saw Reign drink the coffee, he was delighted. Without saying anything, he began his “performance“. From measuring the brew ration to boiling water and soaking the coffee, he was very skillful.

Reign watched at the side and could find any fault in it.

After brewing the coffee, Bernard poured Reign another cup.

However, Reign did not drink the coffee. Instead, she cut to the chase and said. “Mr. Bernard, I’ve tasted your coffee. Let’s get to the point now.

“Regarding the new medicine, when are you going to use it on my brother? How long will the process take?”

“Well, it can be fast and slow. It depends on how you handle this, Ms. Labenz, Bernard said with a wicked smile.

“What do you want me to do?” Reign’s face darkened.

The man wouldn’t act unless he was sure to succeed and he wouldn’t stop until he reached his goal.

Bernard said, “It’s very simple, Ms. Labenz. I’m the director of the hospital. It’s my call whether to use the medicine or not. If you want us to treat your brother with that medicine, you’ll have to get my approval first.

“You should know what to do.”

Reign’s eyes turned cold. She immediately took out a check and wrote 1 million dollars on it before placing it in front of Bernard.

*1 million dollars? Ms. Labenz, are you bribing me?” Bernard said coldly.

“Isn’t that what you want?”

“Ms. Labenz, do you think I’m a greedy person?” asked Bernard.

“Then what do you want?”

Reign furrowed her brows when she heard that.

In the beginning. Bernard had told her to donate money to construct a building in his alma mater.

She directly gave him the money now, but he rejected it. “So, he’s not after money, but fame?” she couldn’t help but wonder.
