Mr. Kane Got Blacklisted

It took Stella a while to figure out what was going on.

She finally understood why Joe suddenly showed up during the incident with Grace Allock and turned the situation around.

It turned out to be this all along.

She felt incredibly awkward.

If she had known it was a wrong number earlier, she wouldn't have spoken up.

It was indeed a bit mean, something only someone as childish as Keegan would do.

Keegan also realized he hadn’t handled the situation well.

Trying to make amends, he said, "I didn't explain clearly.

How about I give you a set of the exclusive skins from the 'Honor of the Deities’ beta?" Joe sniffled softly, "Three sets of beta skins." Keegan couldn't help but laugh at his bargaining.

It seemed Joe wasn’t too hurt after all.

"Alright, I'll give you three sets." Joe immediately stopped crying.

A limited-edition skin set that money couldn't buy versus an idol already married to someone else —any fool would know which to choose.

"Alright, I guess I misunderstood." Then, looking at Stella, he couldn't help but feel regretful.

"Stella, why did you get married so early? Men just slow down your chances of winning awards." Keegan's eyelid twitched.

"Marriage and career don't conflict.

Stop trying to sow discord." "Of course, it doesn't conflict for you as a man," Joe, having been deceived, now "turned dark" upon discovering his idol was taken by an older man.
