I really don't think this villain would change his way of playing on the flop much, if you had played differently there.
When you bet cbet> 50% you can represent hands that you are  protecting and expecting to collect value from various draws. Or you are simply giving up when V raise OTF, something that did not happen here.
If you had bet a smaller size on the flop, your villain would almost certainly raise anyway.
I agree to print all the pressure from the flop, but even preflop you could go bigger with the squeeze, like raise pot size, which would make a pot of 15bb.
The reason is that the MP range seems a bit closed when he call an ultra closed position like UTG. And you have an excellent hand to defend or even bluff preflop, hoping to collect value from hands like: AKs/o that could well be in UTG/MP when players don't show enough aggression preflop (possible at 2nl).
On the turn your check range is medium weak. However when V checks from behind his range becomes a bit wider. Now V not only has JJ and 88 in his range, but also JK; 9T; AK.
Therefore the river favors V range quite a bit, while your hand is a bit undervalued on this texture. To call with QQ it is better to do it with another combo that does not include the Qd, since you want V to have the failed flush draws in his range.
Greetings.
