Chapter 774 Not Our First Meeting!
Reene couldn''t help but smile sweetly as her gazended on Kingsley''s figure. In fact, her beautiful
eyes were practically sparkling with adoration. It was a look that only appeared when someone had
caught sight of someone they loved.
When Francis noticed Reene''s expression, he couldn''t help but think, It seems that the rtionship
between these two is not as simple as brother and sister...
Nheless, she was unaware of his inner musing as she rose to her feet and gestured toward
Francis, saying, "Kingsley, this is the CEO of Ramada Corporation, Mr. Stein."
While she was still introducing the two men to one another, Francis had already jerked to his feet
long ago. He was so nervous that he made sure to wipe his palms before extending his right hand,
anxiously introducing himself, "Dr. Nicholson, I''m Francis Stein."
He was one of the top entrepreneurs in Cleapolis. So, he always had the appearance of a
sessful person and would never act so jumpy even when he was facing the mayor!
Yet, he couldn''t help but break out in cold sweat when he saw Kingsley Nicholson in the flesh!
Kingsley simply nodded at him. "Mr. Stein, it''s nice to meet you."
Francis could only awkwardly retract his right hand and smile. "This is not our first meeting."
"Oh?" Kingsley asked in curiosity, "Have we met?"
Francis hesitated momentarily before replying, "At William Jacob''s funeral. The power you
disyed at that time left a deep impression on me!"
Only then did Kingsley recall that he had shot and killed one of the Jacobs''ckeys and destroyed
William''s coffin before striding out of the premises.
It seemed that this Mr. Stein was one of the guests that day and happened to witness the scene of
him killing someone and destroying the coffin.
So, he curled his lips into a smirk, drawling, "Oh, what power is this you speak of? Are you sure
you''re not praising me just to get into my good graces?"
"Well..." Francis trailed off for a moment as he gathered himself. Then, he exined, "Dr. Nicholson,
I already knew deep in my bones that you were definitely not an ordinary person right then! Sure
enough, you turned out to be a highly skilled doctor! In fact, people have beenuding you as the
God of Medicine."
Meanwhile, Reene noticed the few beads of sweat dotting Francis'' forehead as she interjected
gently, "Mr. Stein, please have a seat while you chat. I need to find Mr. Parker to discuss some
matters, so feel free to use the office."
Then, she took a folder and promptly left the office.
After she departed, Francis and Kingsley sat on the couch, facing each other.
Kingsley wasn''t in a hurry as he picked up a bottle of soda from the coffee table, opened it, and took
anguid sip.
On the other hand, Francis took his time contemting before finally speaking, "Dr. Nicholson, I
heard... you cured Old Mr. Kean of his illness?"
Kingsley put down his soda and nodded. "Yes, it was me."
He was well aware that Francis wanted him to treat Hugo. Nheless, he wasn''t about to bring it
up first. When one was facing someone like Francis, who had been immersed in the business world
for half his life, one could only avoid being at a disadvantage by remaining calm!
Sure enough, Francis'' eyes flickered slightly when he heard Kingsley''s perfunctory response.
Francis couldn''t help but think, Dr. Nicholson should be aware of just why I''m here. I''m certain that
Reene has already told him about my son.
If it were an ordinary young person, they would definitely be eager to bring up the topic just to curry
his favor! After all, the reputation of Ramada Corporation was well known for a reason.
Not everyone had the opportunity to brag about lending Francis a hand! Yet, this young man before
him seemed almost nonchnt!

Thus, he thought it over briefly before cutting straight to the chase, saying, "Dr. Nicholson, the
reason I came today is to ask you for a favor. Please save my son."
This was not a business negotiation. It was about his son''s life!
At this point, he no longer cared about who had the initiative!
Instead, he could only endure Kingsley even if the man decided to make outrageous demands!
"Your son?" Kingsley quirked an eyebrow. "The one who is in a vegetative state?"
Francis quickly nodded as he continued, "It seems you have also heard about it. My eldest son was
beaten into a vegetative state and has been lying in bed for several months. I beg of you. Please
treat my son!"
