Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted Chapter 2431 - At first, she didn't recognize the number because she had blocked all his contacts after the breakup. It wasn't until he sent another message saying, "I've never forgotten you. I know we haven't spoken, but could you give me a chance?" that she realized it was him.

Almost two years after the breakup, he suddenly reappeared. The girls in the dormitory gathered to figure out what was wrong with this guy.

Eventually, they managed to get information from one of his roommates by bribing him with a ticket to a ball game. It turned out that the guy had broken up with the other girl, but not on his terms. She had dumped him for a senior. When she had been with the senior, she had praised and admired him in the same way she had done with the roommate's boyfriend.

Enraged, the guy got hold of her chat records with other boys and posted them on the school forum. It turned out that the girl had a habit of flattering guys, sharing photos, and asking them simple questions under the guise of studying or club activities.

She would act amazed by their answers, saying things like, "I've been thinking about this all afternoon, and you solved it so easily. You're amazing!" These fake compliments made the guys feel good, and many, even those with girlfriends, maintained an ambiguous relationship with her.

She was also good at creating physical contact with guys, like asking for help with trivial things such as twisting bottle caps, carrying heavy items, or sharing an umbrella on a rainy day.

Once her chat records were exposed, her reputation among her classmates was ruined. Eventually, she had to take a leave of absence from school.

It turned out that the roommate's ex was dumped by the other girl, and that's when he started missing his old relationship. He refused to admit his fault and blamed the breakup on his ex for being too rational and independent, claiming she never praised him in the way the other girl did. This almost made the roommate feel guilty, but she realized that the real issue was with guys like him who allowed such behavior to cross the line.

They expect women to be virtuous, independent, and supportive of their careers, but they also want to be admired and worshipped by other women to boost their self-esteem.

The roommate reported his cheating and his involvement in exposing the other girl's privacy on the forum to the company he was about to join. As a result, they rejected his job application. In the end, he didn't get into the big company he wanted and had to settle for a small, unknown one.

He had planned to work there for a year or two and then reapply to a big company, but the girl got involved with him again, causing him to make a big mistake at work, which led to heavy losses for the small company. He was blacklisted by local companies, and no good company wanted him anymore, so he had to return home in disgrace.

Jaylene's behavior reminded Stella of that girl. If she hadn't looked through Keegan's chat records, she wouldn't have known when Jaylene was trying to win him over.

Stella felt inadequate when it came to keeping a man's heart.

Stella asked quietly, "She praised you. Are you unhappy?"

Keegan replied, "Her praise felt fake. I just read the manual, and she said I was great. How am I great for doing that? Can she even read? I felt insulted."

Then, smiling as if recalling something from his youth, he added, "My graduate supervisor saw Luna's test. He wants to recommend me for his teacher's Ph.D. program."

He paused, then coughed lightly, "He hasn't recommended anyone to his supervisor in seven years. He told me not to be ungrateful."

Stella asked, puzzled, "Why wouldn't you want that opportunity?"

Keegan calmly replied, "Seven years ago, he wanted to push me into a Ph.D. program, and I turned him down."

Stella stayed silent, realizing that Keegan's excellence made him m immune to flattery. He didn't need validation from others, especially not from women's praise and admiration.

Keegan ignored the question about Jaylene's necklace and instead fold Stella's baby some idioms and stories, helping Stella fall asleep. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Meanwhile, Vermont lay in bed,

restless. He couldn't sleep and after tossing and turning until 3 AM, finally decided to message Keegan,

"Brother, I have a friend."
