Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted (Stella and Keegan) novel Chapter 1322

Chapter 1322

Felicity only caught the first part of Vermont’s explanation and thought, ‘I knew he’s into the small-waisted and busty type-a classic playboy.’

Meanwhile, Stella had decided not to get in the water with Felicity and Vermont. Instead, she wanted to swim in the pool nearby.

When Keegan heard about her plans, he immediately wanted to join. “You don’t even know how to swim. Are you going to just sit there and watch me? Stay here and enjoy the water. I’ll be back after a few laps,” said Stella.

But Keegan was insistent. “Teach me,” he said.

Stella looked at him and continued, “Didn’t you say you don’t want to learn how to swim the last time I said I wanted to teach you?”

‘Well, I can’t just sit here and watch other men hit on you, can I?’ Keegan asked himself. Though, he said, “It’s good to have another skill in my pocket. You never know when it might come in handy.”

Stella thought about it and agreed that having extra skills couldn’t hurt. ‘Plus, it’d be nice if he could join me in the pool instead of being stuck on shore, just watching me swim all the time.’

“Alright. Let’s go,” she said.

The pool area was not too crowded. Stella led Keegan to the poolside, where they warmed up before getting in.

Following that, she entered the water and encouraged him to follow.

As Keegan dipped his leg into the pool, memories of his near -drowning experience as a child rushed into his mind. He instinctively pulled his foot back.

Stella shot him a glance and said, “No. Most kids don’t use floaties. Only rookies like you, who can’t swim, need them.”

Her words left Keegan taken aback.

“Do you want to learn or not? If not. I’m gonna swim by myself.”

Keegan was reluctant, but he still clung to the unappealing inflatable flamingo.

He paid close attention as Stella proceeded to teach him how to breathe while swimming. But when his head dipped into the water, it immediately popped back up. He grimaced and said, “The water got in my ears.”

Stella was patient at first but grew frustrated as time passed. “As long as it doesn’t get into your brain, you’re fine. Come on. Are you gonna give up?”

Keegan still had some reservations about continuing but wanted to stick around. As he thought hard about how to keep Stella close, a familiar voice sounded from beside them, “Hey, Stella. Wanna race?”
