My Rich Hot and Infertile or Maybe Not Husband

Chapter 1296

Celeste turned her head and saw Mason not far away, chuckling at her in the water.

He was wearing a short–sleeved swimsuit, showing off the scars on his arms without any inhibitions. No more hiding them under long sleeves like before.

Celeste was pretty shocked by this change. She always thought Mason’s past life was way too uptight. It must’ve taken a hell of a lot of guts to change like this

Always generous with compliments, she gave him a thumbs up, wholeheartedly praising him. “Mr. Fletcher, you’re looking quite dashing today!”

Mason paused slightly, seeming a bit shy. He lowered his head, his eyelashes fluttering gently, his ears tinged a faint pink.

Liam’s eye twitched. He pushed Celeste’s thumb back into the water. 1 haven’t even learned yet!”

Celeste said, “If you never learn to breathe properly, you’ll never get it.”

Liam pouted, “Water in the ears is uncomfortable.”

“Then you better get used to it, Celeste let go, “Just float around with your flamingo.”

With that, she dove into the water and swam a few meters away. She popped her head out, looked back at Liam with a smile, then mouthed a few words before diving back in again.

Mason glanced at Liam, who was in a rather sour mood. His gaze landed on the flamingo Liam was clinging to. “Quite a nice bird,” he remarked.

Then he swam off to follow Celeste.

Liam fell silent.

Looking at the pink flamingo in his hand, Liam suddenly had the urge to strangle it!

Celeste swam really well, easily switching between freestyle, breaststroke, and backstroke, and she was quite fast too.

Mason maintained a respectful distance behind her all along.

After two laps, Celeste finally stopped.

Swimming after so long was really tiring. She would’ve given up after the first lap if it weren’t for Mason tagging along behind her.

She held onto the edge of the pool, panting and catching her breath. When she turned her head, Mason looked as if it was all a piece of cake. He was even giving her pointers, “Don’t breathe with your mouth. Inhale and exhale slowly Those two laps felt like a walk in the park for him.

After a while, Celeste’s breathing became slightly steadier. She exclaimed, “Mr. Fletcher, you sure have some stamina!”

Mason chuckled, “I used to participate in marathon swimming when I was abroad. Practiced for a long time. Guess it’s muscle memory.” Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Turned out he was a pro.

Celeste retorted, “I saw on your profile at the law firm that you also do skydiving and scuba diving. Aren’t you prone to headaches? Is it okay to do these extreme sports?”

Mason replied, “It hurts a bit when I’m doing sports, but I can handle it. Plus, the exhilaration after exercising just makes me ignore all that. It’s a great stress reliever

Liam agreed with this point

Exercising was also his go–to stress relief method.

Thinking of this. Celeste asked, “Mr. Fletcher, you and Liam grew up together. Has he always been afraid of water?”

Mason paused, “Didn’t Liam tell you?”

“Tell me what?”

“He nearly drowned when he was a kid”

Celeste was taken aback

Liam never mentioned this before. But maybe it was because she never asked

Liam was a reserved person. If you didn’t ask, he definitely wouldn’t bring it up.

Thinking of this, Celeste asked, “How did he drown?”

Liam was the little prince of the Reed family. His grandma spoiled him rotten, and he still managed to drown. Celeste found it quite odd.
