She knew him yet did not tell him How, Whom she was... Or even Knowing first hand witness what MC shared.
Instead of consoling him as a compassionate person would or as some say, how friends and family treat each other.
She took advantage of him AND the situation at hand.
Knowing FULL WELL and Continued manipulating Him AND things to her favor.
Instead of being a decent friend/companion/anything--> to MC.
Just between Alexis and MC ALONE...........Erynn, doesn't change what It Is.
She Manipulated them both AND continued.
If You are unable to comprehend it, i suggest to You.
Read Everything, it's all there to see:
She was Erynn's friend and a acquaintance of the MC years back, not his friend nor close to him.
Heck the MC doesn't even remember who she is when Erynn shows him pics from back then.
As said by Fiufia, if u talk about some life troubles with a stranger u don't want to be consoled, mostly u just want to vent maybe get some input from a unrelated person.
As for the MC he wasn't sure how he want to deal with Erynn and wanted more time to make up his mind, what consoling do u even want to give here ? Her saying she is best friends with Erynn or that Erynn still has feelings for the MC wouldn't have made the situation any better, besides that this is really not her place to say.
The MC himself doesn't want to meet Erynn early on, or let her know he's back, even Erynn's mother doesn't say anything to her. If the MC would have wanted contact, he could have done so at all times, they are neighbours after all.
And yeah, i don't see how wanting a quicky or her pursuing the MC is manipulation by any means.
She does what every other LI does and goes for the guy she likes, it's not like she is trying to prevent the MC from speaking, meeting or making up with Erynn, nor is she stealing him from Erynn.
How is Alexis pursuing the MC any different from what Layla, Nikki, Erynn or any of the other LI's do ?
As for her manipulating Erynn i don't even know where u got this from, all she does is, not talking with Erynn about the MC, thats hardly manipulation.
