A) Fire and Forget: Process-driven platform events publishes events on Salesforce Event Bus doesn't seem to fit the use case here. We need a way to get the preferences immediately, not asynchronously.

I agree with Micheline. Request-Reply pattern is the most suitable for checking preferences in real-time from an externally hosted RESTful service.

I think C) Request-Reply is the best option because it allows us to invoke the REST API and get a response back.
