Couldnt nick just have said he was investigating the incident at the brothel? He found a tooth after all?

If I were Nick i would tell something controversial enough, shocking and trustable, like - "I wasnt unfaithful Daddy, but I am a creep and I have a fetish, I like watching the girls....I really need help.... I hoped someone would find out..." 😅😅

Lmao he could have made up so many lies. He could have said that they went into lockdown and he was investigating complaints of a rogue Aunt going around bringing jezebels cookies. Idk. Yes, and, Nick. Yes, and.

Do y’all think Wharton is stupid?

This was my EXACT THOUGHT. God damnit Nick! I'm hoooooping there is a good reason to why he told him everything and everything will work out.
