General Hospital (GH) spoilers tease that Ava Jerome (Maura West) will score half the Cassadine fortune, so Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma) will pay the price for his forbidden passion.
Nikolas’ guilt over what went down with Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl) appears to be motivating this divorce in the first place.
It seems like Nikolas thinks divorcing Ava and starting over with a new marriage will somehow erase his infidelity, but it doesn’t work that way!
Nevertheless, this divorce is moving forward, so Esme will be surprised to hear about it when she stumbles across a meeting at the Metro Court Gardens.
Esme will assume Nikolas and Ava are splitting up when she finds them hammering out the divorce details with Scott Baldwin (Kin Shriner), but Nik will insist they’re still together and intend to remarry.
After Esme privately blackmails Nikolas into getting her internship at Spring Ridge reinstated, he’ll obviously be pretty rattled.
Even so, Nikolas will try not to show it as he continues the divorce meeting and prepares to sign over half the Cassadine fortune to Ava.
GH fans will recall that Ava and Nikolas destroyed their post-nups, so she’s entitled to that half.
Of course, Nikolas will view it as a sign of faith in their marriage. Since Nikolas fully expects to tie the knot again and share the Cassadine fortune once more, it may not seem like that big of a deal.
However, it’ll become a VERY big deal when this remarriage doesn’t happen.
Ava will inevitably find out about Nikolas’ betrayal with Esme before they can make another wedding stick.
In fact, Ava seems poised to make Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaughnessy) her new husband instead to keep him from being deported.
It sounds like Ava will walk away with half of Nikolas’ money and will be able to enjoy Victor’s fortune too once they’re married.
Ava will make Nikolas pay the price for cheating with Esme in more ways than one, so at least she’ll have some revenge to ease her heartbreak!
General Hospital spoilers say Nikolas’ world is on the verge of falling apart, so don’t miss all the action.
