I really want to upvote him, but I just don't feel the argument that he doesn't love his daughter. There's nothing from what I've seen that would completely prove that he doesn't care about her, and he's so protective of her that she won't even dare saying that somone wronged her to him as she believes he'll do something horrible to that person.

It could be argued that he's downright abusive as a father considering how his criminal acts could negatively influence his daughter, but I don't see that as an argument either as for that to be proof that he doesn't care about Veronica it would actively have to be shown that he's continuing his lifestyle despite knowing how it could influence her, and that is never shown.

No, but I will say that he was pretty close to a yes.
