MOST POWERFUL HUSBAND, VOLUME 4 - Season 6 Episode 4

At the mention of Lucas, Karen immediately gritted her teeth. “Hmph, I’ve wanted to kill him a long time ago! But he now has the protection of the Coles and seems quite skilled in martial arts too. Even if we get someone to kill him, I’m afraid it won’t be of much help. That’s why I asked you to come over. If we work together, we’ll definitely make him die!”

This was exactly what Nikki wanted. She quickly asked, “What solution do you have? Aunt Karen, quickly tell me!”

The thought of the impending death of the culprit of her suffering made Nikki’s face twist into a grimace of hate.

Karen said with a sinister expression, “I’ve naturally thought of the best solution. But before that, we have to think of a way to kill another person!”

Nikki was a little surprised and asked doubtfully, “Who? Are you referring to the bodyguard or expert who has been following Lucas around?”

Karen shook her head and said slowly, “No, it’s William Carter!”

William Carter? Isn’t he her husband, the father of Cheyenne and Charlotte?! Nikki was so astonished that she couldn’t utter a single word. She actually said that we have to kill her husband first?!

“Wh-what exactly is going on here?!” After a while, Nikki barely managed to suppress her shock. “Why do you want to kill him? Besides, the person we want to kill is Lucas Gray. What does it have to do with William Carter?”

She was really puzzled as to why Karen would suddenly want to kill her husband. Besides, how would William’s death even impact Lucas?

She really couldn’t understand what Karen was thinking.

Karen said with a ruthless and menacing expression, “No, you’re wrong. There’s a great connection between the two!”

She looked at Nikki. “Well, you now know what kind of place I’m living in, huh?”

Nikkie scanned her surroundings, the messy and filthy rented apartment, and then shrugged without saying anything.

What else could she say about such a horrid place?

Karen continued, “I’m not afraid to tell you the truth. Lucas Gray previously saved the life of Ethan Sawyer. So in order to repay him, he showered Lucas Gray with loads of expensive gifts, including an extremely luxurious villa, which I used to live in before moving here.

“But God knows what happened to that idiot William’s brain. He insisted on moving out of the villa and into this shabby and tiny apartment. Not only is he stupid, but he even forced me to move out with him! I bet he’s determined not to let me live a good life!

“In that case, I no longer have to care about our marriage. Once he dies, I can just move back to the villa! This way, I will have the opportunity to be in more contact with that bastard Lucas Gray. It will then be much easier to kill him secretly!”

Karen had an evil expression on her face as she talked about her scheme.

She had spent decades with William, but she had never gotten to enjoy any luxury, so she saw no reason for her to suffer with him. Besides, he had tried threatening her with a divorce several times before, which was simply atrocious!

As long as William was dead, Karen would no longer have to worry about his threats, and she would be able to enjoy the things she should have enjoyed with peace of mind. Once William was dead, she would become a widow, and she was confident that Cheyenne, Charlotte, and Lucas wouldn’t throw her out of the villa regardless of how overboard she was in the future.

To her, William was just an eyesore and a stumbling block!

Nikki cocked her head to the side. “Aunt Karen, are you saying that the two of us should get rid of Uncle William so that you can take the opportunity to move back into the villa they’re living in before finding the opportunity to take action against Lucas Gray? But if your motive is just to return to the villa to find a chance to come into contact with him, there shouldn’t be a need to kill Uncle William, right?”

With a delirious expression on her face, Karen exclaimed, “No, you don’t understand. That despicable man William Carter is bonkers and refuses to let me move back into the villa. He even threatened to divorce me if I did so! So I have no choice but to do this!”

The hatred and menace on her face made Nikki’s heart shudder.

In order to go back to living in the luxurious villa, Karen didn’t mind killing her husband. She was truly ruthless!

It was as if this was Nikki’s first time seeing Karen. She found Karen’s supposedly familiar face somewhat unfamiliar and terrifying.

But Nikki didn’t particularly care about it. After all, they were now on the same side and shared the common goal of killing Lucas. In fact, Karen’s character had nothing much to do with her. At worst, she would keep a distance from her in the future.

“But Aunt Karen, how do you plan to kill William Carter?” Nikki asked.

Karen immediately smiled. “That’s why I need your help with this, Nikki!”

“Uh… I’m just a young woman. How can I help you? Besides, you and he spend time together every day, so you should have more opportunities to take action against him.” Nikki kept trying to turn her down tactfully, but she immediately became wary. Surely this evil aunt of mine isn’t intending to ask me to kill William Carter, right?

She wasn’t that foolish as to commit such a crime!

Karen grinned and quickly said, “Don’t worry. I just need you to give me some money. Leave the rest to me!”

“You need money? Are you thinking of hiring a killer…?” Nikki immediately asked.

Karen nodded and said sinisterly, “That’s right. After all, we’re both women, and it’s really difficult for us to kill a man ourselves. Besides, if William dies at home, I will be the first one suspected, so we can only hire an outsider to do it. Of course, this will require a lot of money.

“Nikki, as you can see, I’m living in a tiny and shabby apartment, and I don’t have much savings. I’m really poor, and according to the information I’ve inquired, we’ll need at least a hundred and fifty grand to hire a reliable killer. I’m counting on you!”

Only then did Nikki understand the reason Karen had asked her to join forces. It turned out that she needed money to hire a killer.

“Got it, Aunt Karen. But the Herons have been having a hard time lately, and the Heron Corp. is about to go bankrupt. How can I possibly take out so much money?” Nikki was naturally not too happy about this.

Karen took her hand and persuaded glibly, “Don’t worry, Nikki. Like I just said, Lucas Gray has received lots of monetary gifts from Ethan Sawyer. As soon as I return to the villa, I can immediately return all the money you lend me!

“Moreover, as soon as Lucas Gray dies, those big families in LA will naturally stop suppressing the Herons in order to please the Coles. When the time comes, your family will naturally be able to get through this crisis. You can have as much money as you want in the future.

“By then, you’ll get the most credit for this, and your grandfather and your father will definitely be impressed by you. All you have to do is cover a part of the cost in advance. Soon, you will be able to recover it and obtain tremendous benefits. Wouldn’t that be great?”

What Karen said was really convincing. At the very least, Nikki was really tempted.
