After a spiteful Alison revealed that Victor Newman was the true father of Nikki's baby, Nikki's husband, Kevin, left town. Meanwhile, Nikki continued to be in the dark about the real paternity of her daughter. Rick Daros proposed marriage to Nikki. Instead, Nikki suggested that they live together and Rick agreed. However, after Nikki moved in with Rick, he underwent a character transformation and became obsessed with her. It was soon discovered that Rick's tyrannical jealousy drove him to murder his first wife, Melissa. Rick kidnapped Nikki and dragged her to St. Croix, a small island in the Pacific. Victor, Andy and Paul realized that Nikki's life was in danger. They trailed her to the small island and rescued her.
Soon after, Nikki discovered that Victor was Victoria's father, and Nikki fell in love with Victor again. Eventually, they made plans to marry, but the ceremony came close to being destroyed by Eve Howard, who had escaped the loony bin. Fortunately, Eve was recaptured, and the couple exchanged vows. After they became husband and wife, Nikki arranged for Victor to be reunited with his mother, Cora Miller. But the reconciliation was brief. Cora soon died from a terminal illness. Meanwhile, Victor lent emotional support to his pal, Douglas Austin, who was pursuing a hooker named Boobsie Calwell.

After a one-night encounter with Eric Garrison, Julia discovered that she was pregnant. She prematurely gave birth to a baby daughter. Eric didn't know that he was the infant's dad and he continued to be interested in Ashley Abbott. Meanwhile, Victor learned the truth about the paternity of Julia's baby, but he stayed silent.
