And because Adalind chose not to disclose that Kenneth was manipulating Juliette for his benefit, it’s reasonable that Nick’s only objective was to salvage his relationship with Juliette while protecting his unborn child. I didn’t see any indication that Nick felt a responsibility to Adalind other than his child’s wellbeing was directly dependent on her wellbeing and he needed her to create the suppression potion. Because to Nick, Juliette’s Hexenbiest was the only detriment to the relationship and his unborn child.
I’m onboard with Adalind not sharing any information that could potentially compromise her and the baby’s safety and getting Diana back. But realistically, Nick might have taken a different approach had Adalind told him about Kenneth’s plan for Juliette and luring his mother to Portland. Because IIRC, Nick assumed Juliette's behavior at the Spice Shop was solely due to the Hexenbiest's influence. And once Juliette refused the suppressant and announced she had embraced her new life, there wasn't anything he could do other than go on the offensive.
I clearly remember Nick was not in-the-know, what Ken had planned. Ken only got to antagonize Juliette just after he posted bail. Nick was probably shocked that she was out on bail when he saw her waltz in the precinct.
My question to you is, how much of Ken's plan was Adalind aware of. He did mention to Adalind he figured out that Nick was the father of her new pregnancy. As I recall, Adalind did comment to Ken, Juliette would never turn against Nick. Once Juliette walked in the police station, the hat was out of the bag about Juliette knowing who got her pregnant.
We are talking about minutes from the time Ken telling her, to the time of her, confronting the two. She showed up right after she got bailed out. The time spent, for her to brew her anger was the time spent for a Uber driver to take her from lock-up to the precinct.
If Adalind knew and had told Nick about Ken's plans with Juliette, it would have been just seconds after Adalind told Nick he was the daddy and only a few minutes before she shows up. Remember, Adalind had known Ken was up to something but not specifics.
Would her knowing and telling Nick had made any differences?

I also agree it is a bit hypocritical calling out Nick merely for protecting a pregnant Adalind, while Juliette slept with Renard a man who has caused them both as much if not more pain than Adalind .Thank you, I'm glad you think it makes sense.
Your post was one of the best ever presented on this Forum. Kudos!

I second those Kudos also. I wonder if (cough) "SOME" might disagree.
You know you are OLD, when you see the Slide Ruler you used in college selling in an ANTIQUE SHOP!!
