The town of Port Charles has had one big bombshell dropped after another. The latest comes with some major twist. Not only did the shock of Nikolas’ (Marcus Coloma) return from the dead stir things up at Nina (Cynthia Watros) and Valentin’s (James Patrick Stuart) wedding, but shortly after Nik came face to face with those who thought he was dead, a few big bombs were dropped. Nikolas revealed to Valentin and to everyone in attendance that Valentin is not actually a Cassadine and that he is merely Helena’s (Constance Towers) son, with no Cassadine blood.
The revelations and confessions didn’t end there. Nikolas’ Mother Laura (Genie Francis) wasn’t too pleased to learn that her son who has just returned from the dead will be getting married to Ava Jerome (Maura West). It’s obvious this isn’t a marriage of love although Nikolas and Ava did have a brief romance before he was shot by Valentin. Some may think the fact that Nikolas saved Ava from the cold water after Valentin pushed her in would be a sign of love. However, it’s more likely that Nikolas was saving Ava because she is his only way of getting his hands on the Cassadine codicil. Their upcoming nuptials have more to do with a business transaction than real love. General Hospital spoilers hint Ava is in control, and this marriage set up is a way to hold the codicil over Nikolas’ head in order for her to get her piece of the pie, and ultimately revenge on Valentin for what he did to her regarding her face.
Things may not be exactly what they seem, especially for Ava Jerome. She thinks she is in control because the codicil has been in her possession. But is Nikolas actually the one in control? General Hospital spoilers indicate that Nik will be the one pulling one over on Ava. It’s highly possible that he is still legally married to Hayden Barnes (Rebecca Budig), and if you’re already legally married to someone, marrying another would not be official. Odds are Ava will be led to believe (by Nikolas) that they are actually married all while he knows darn well he cannot marry another while still legally bound to Hayden.
Will Ava’s plan to get her hands on some of the Cassadine fortune backfire, or will Nikolas and Ava be the next big romance on GH?
