General Hospital Spoilers: Jax Confronts Valentin, But Is Nikolas Framing Him?

General Hospital spoilers tease that Jasper “Jax” Jacks (Ingo Rademacher) will have a confrontation with Valentin Cassadine (James Patrick Stuart) in an upcoming episode of GH!

General Hospital Spoilers – Jasper Jacks Has A Couple Of Different Reasons To Confront Valentin Cassadine

As General Hospital viewers know, Jax has a couple of reasons to confront Valentin, although Valentin may have some reasons to confront Jax as well! Viewers will recall that Valentin employed Attorney Martin Gray (Michael E. Knight) not only to offer money for Helena Cassadine’s (Constance Towers) portrait, but conveniently left his tablet, audio recorder running, which recorded Jax and Laura Collins (Genie Francis) talking about Mikkos Cassadine’s (John Colicos) codicil, which they know disinherits Valentin, and it being in the portrait – either in the clues that J.

Garren painted in it or it is behind the portrait itself, which is the more likely scenario since Laura made it a point to ask Martin if the frame and backing were intact on the portrait! But there is one other reason that Jax might have to confront Valentin – and that is the disappearance of Hayden Barnes (Rebecca Budig)!

GH Spoilers – Would Nikolas Cassadine Not Tell Jasper Jacks That He Got Hayden Barnes Out Of Town?

Would Nikolas Cassadine (Marcus Coloma) not tell Jax that he got Hayden out of town for her own safety because of threats from Valentin? Maybe, but maybe not! His relationship with Jax has been becoming more and more strained and at this point it may be tenuous at best.

General Hospital viewers know, especially those who have been watching Nikolas through the years, that as he has gotten older, he has become more Cassadine than Spencer, and has become much darker. He shot Hayden in the head at one time before his “death” and was quite willing to take out Valentin with a fireplace poker at Wyndemere, even knowing little Charlotte Cassadine (Scarlett Fernandez) was in the house!

But then, Spencer Cassadine (Nicolas Bechtel) was close to the same age Charlotte is now and he didn’t even reach out to his little boy to let him know he survived! It seems like both Cassadines, Nikolas and Valentin have the innate ability to be duplicitous and employ it according to convenience for them to do so. There were even theories that Nikolas was the man painted into Helena’s teapot in the portrait and that he poisoned her tea!

General Hospital Spoilers – Nikolas Cassadine May Be Framing Valentin Cassadine For the Disappearance Of Hayden Barnes

Nikolas in fact may be framing Valentin for the disappearance of Hayden, and could have even made her disappear for good instead of helping her save her life like he told her. He seemed sincere, but so does Valentin when he lies. It may be a family trait that is in their genes! Nikolas heard Hayden appear to double-cross him on the phone to Valentin and she did not explain anything to him at the time because he didn’t give her a clue that he had overheard her conversation.

So when Jax confronts Valentin, he may well be confronting the wrong Cassadine if the confrontation is about Hayden’s disappearance; as far as the portrait, Valentin was blowing smoke even to his attorney, because Ava Jerome (Maura West) still has it hidden in her gallery and has not sold it!
