Chapter 580: Between Father and Daughter

Chapter 580: Between Father and Daughter

Nikki received a great shock and frantically stammered, “It’s nothing… I’m fine. I-I just accidentally broke the vase.”

Justin didn’t believe her at all. “I’m your father. I can tell if you’re really fine or not. Nikki, tell me. what exactly happened?”

Although he no longer had any more feelings for Nikki’s mother and wanted to divorce her, he still cared a lot about Nikki, his only daughter.

No matter what, Nikki was his biological daughter.

Nikki bit her lower lip and hesitated for a long while before finally resting her head on Justin’s shoulder and bursting into tears. “Dad, I did something wrong, and I might be in deep trouble. You have to help me!”

Justin was startled. His daughter had always been smart and usually seemed adorable and obedient. He would rarely see her crying like this.

Something major must have happened!

“Nikki, calm down. Come on, tell me slowly. What happened? What did you do wrong?” he asked with a gloomy expression.

Nikki huffed and sputtered everything about how she and Karen had plotted William’s murder and even hired someone to kill him, followed by their plan to kill Lucas. But things were about to be exposed, and Nikki might be exposed too.

Justin’s expression changed again and again. He finally couldn’t restrain himself from slapping Nikki on her face.

“Are you stupid? How could you do such a thing with a stupid woman like Karen Turner?

“Moreover, you actually dared to hide a planned murder from me. You’re really becoming bolder and bolder!

“If the situation hadn’t changed, were you planning never to tell me about this for the rest of your life? Do you still regard me as your father?”

Nikki covered her face and burst into tears. “I-I didn’t mean to hide it from you! I didn’t want you to worry about it, so I planned to tell you after the matter was done!

“Besides, why do I want to kill Lucas Gray? It’s obviously for the sake of the Herons. When we were at Dylan’s wedding, he caused us to be so aggrieved, so much so that no one is willing to associate with us anymore. Our business is in the doldrums now. I hate Lucas Gray!

“That’s why I thought of a way to get back at him, and it just so happened that Karen found me, and we finally decided to get rid of him together. I didn’t expect her to be so useless and cause things to blow up to this point!

“Dad, you have to help me now! That bitch Karen has a voice recording. If she gets exposed, she will definitely drag me down too! When that happens, Lucas won’t let me off, nor will he spare the Herons! Dad, please help me think of a solution!”

Naturally, Nikki wouldn’t take the initiative to reveal her personal feud with Lucas. She merely made it seem like she was doing it for the Herons’ sake.

As expected, the anger on Justin’s face slowly vanished after hearing her words.

Nikki hated Lucas because of the current situation of the Herons, and she wanted to get rid of him partly also because of the Herons.

Although she had used a radical approach and even went so far as to hire a murderer, no amount of complaining would help since it had already happened.

As Karen had said, if William woke up and exposed what Karen had done, she would definitely drag Nikki down with her.

Even if Karen was the mastermind and Nikki was just an accomplice, it was still a huge crime, which would ruin her completely. He would have raised his daughter for nothing too.

Furthermore, Lucas would definitely take revenge on the Herons.

The most important thing to do now was to make sure Nikki didn’t get implicated.

After thinking about it, he could only come up with two solutions.

One, as Karen had said, was to kill William before he woke up so that he would never be able to speak again.

Two was to just kill Karen so that she could never get Nikki implicated, and the Herons would be fine then.

But there was a tremendous risk in the second method because he didn’t know how many copies of the voice recording and how much evidence Karen had.

He had always thought that Karen was an extremely stupid woman, so he hadn’t needed to bother with her. But now, he couldn’t see her as a fool since she knew to record conversations as evidence.

In case she kept copies of the voice recording elsewhere or quietly recorded other evidence that would be revealed after her death, Nikki’s name would never be cleared.

Nikki looked at Justin with a pleading expression on her face. “Dad, have you thought of something yet? Quick, save me!”

Justin glared at her. “Now you know to be scared, huh? What have you been doing? When you hired someone to commit murder behind my back, weren’t you very daring?”

“Dad, I really know my mistakes. I won’t dare to do it again!” Nikki pursed her lips and lowered her head obediently.

Only then did Justin say, “I just thought about it. The only way to get this matter resolved is to kill William Carter.”

“That’s what I thought too! As long as he is dead, his lips will be sealed forever. And without evidence, Lucas can’t do anything to me even if he suspects that there’s something fishy about the car accident!”

While speaking, she quickly frowned. “But we can’t kill William now. That bitch Karen told me that his ward is guarded well, and Lucas and Cheyenne are both staying by his side all day and night now. There’s no chance to take action at all. That’s why Karen turned to me.”

Seeing Justin frowning, she said tentatively, “How about we let Karen find an opportunity to lure Lucas and Cheyenne out so that we can wait for an opportunity to strike?”

“No!!!” Justin denied resolutely. “That woman is simply useless. She’s nothing but a failure. Instead of counting on her, we might as well rely on ourselves!

“Besides, she actually secretly recorded your conversation and tried to manipulate you with it. If we go to her again, she might get more evidence against us.

“Once this matter is over, we’ll think of another way to get all the evidence back from her, lest she continues to use it to threaten you.”

He gave Nikki a deep glance and said coldly, “If we can’t, I’ll have to think of a way to kill her too!”

Nikki immediately inhaled sharply.
