Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted by Eleven Jewell

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 held onto his hand and encouraged him, saying, "Take it slow. Step on the steps. I'll guide you."
Keegan gathered a ton of courage and slowly dipped his other foot in. Each step was a struggle for someone with a fear of
water. But it was not as terrifying as he thought with his lover by his side.
Keegan realized the water only reached his chest once he was fully in it. He could even touch the bottom of the pool with his
feet. Feeling the ground beneath him, he gained some confidence. He let go of Stella's hand and stepped forward. However, he

slipped and fell back into the water the moment he did that.
Keegan thought his feet touching the bottom of the pool meant he was safe. However, the buoyant force in water caused it to be
dangerous for people who do not know how to swim.
Witnessing this, Stella reacted swiftly and dove in to rescue him. Keegan coughed up some water, holding onto her as he tried to
catch his breath. His fair face flushed red from all the coughing.
Once he composed himself, Stella handed him a 20-inch inflatable flamingo and said, "Hold onto this. Let's start by practicing
your breathing."
Keegan looked at the bird-shaped pool float and complained, "Isn't this for kids? I don't want it!"
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?"
