GH Spoilers: Esme And Nikolas Claim Spencer’s The Daddy

General Hospital (GH) spoilers reveals Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma) has been wracking his brain trying to find a solution to the growing problem in the north tower of his castle. Esme Prince (Avery Kristen Pohl) is pregnant and glowing with a look in her eye that lets Nik know she’s coming from his fortune. But the whole Cassadine honey pot is at risk as long as Nikolas is married to Ava. At any point, she could divorce him and take his millions claiming he committed adultery. The problem is, there is proof of such in the form of a baby. When Ava realizes she could use that proof to hammer Nikolas in court, he and Esme will hatch a plan to blame the paternity on Spencer Cassadine (Nicholas Chavez) — who will vehemently deny it.

If the truth was revealed and Ava knew Esme was potentially carrying Nikolas’ child, she could potentially clean him out in divorce court and walk away with a hefty portion of the Cassadine fortune. Nikolas loves Ava more than his money, but he’s a reasonable man with a target on his back. Victor Cassadine (Charles Shaugnessy) also has his eyes on Nikolas’ fortune, as does Esme. It appears it will be in everyone’s best interest to keep Ava in the dark.

Spencer isn’t going to entertain the idea that he’s the baby’s father because he hadn’t been intimate with Esme for months prior to her leaving, but it’s going to be his word against hers. Ava might recognize that and order Scotty Baldwin (Kin Shriner) to drag things out until the baby is born and she can prove it’s Nikolas’. That being said, Scott might think to remind her that sword has another edge, and it could prove Nikolas is not the father. Will she take that risk and hang on to her marriage until Esme gives birth?

Victor and Esme only go along with the scheme to hide the truth from Ava because it suits their goal of wanting a piece of the Cassadine pie. Should Nikolas try to ice them out from their fair share of his bank account, they might change their tune. Will Esme or Victor be the nail in Nikolas’ coffin? Or might Ava have a change of heart and decide she’d rather help Nikolas keep his fortune alongside her?
