Valentin Cassadine spends these three years building one lie on top of another, and every single one collapses. He fakes Nina a daughter, loses his own name when a hidden codicil proves he isn't really a Cassadine at all, and rebuilds his power from scratch by quietly taking over ELQ. Along the way, he protects Peter August's darkest secrets for years, gets pulled into a rivalry with Anna Devane's twin sister that nearly kills him twice, and ends up doting on a baby who isn't even his.

By the time this stretch ends, Valentin has lost a wife, a name, and a fake daughter, and finally started something real with Anna Devane, right before getting kidnapped in Crete by a man claiming to be his actual father.
