## Storylines

On November 10, 2022 in the PC Grill; Victor asks someone on the phone about Valentin. He tells the person to keep looking. When they find Valentin, they will find Anna as well as anyone who abetted her escape after the attacks from a female serial killer who goes by The Hook.

Valentin goes outside and it is revealed he was talking to a henchman named Gavin Crawford. Victor asks if there is any news about Valentin. Gavin says there is nothing. Victor asks about Anna and Gavin says there isn’t a trace of her but there is a family matter that will be of particular importance to Victor.

Vic goes back into the Grill to Ava and Nina's table and tells them what Gavin just said to him. The police issued a BOLO for Victor's co-conspirator Esme Prince. She’s been spotted in town alive and well.

On November 22 at GH, Gavin hides behind a plant while watching an officer cuff a briefcase to Robert’s wrist. Gavin calls Victor and says the package changed hands as Robert has the necklace. Victor asks how and Gavin explains that Robert came to Britt’s office with a cop. But there is no need to worry as Gavin knows where Robert is headed.

On November 29, Eileen Ashby texts Gavin after overhearing at the PCPD that Holly is in a residence near a well in the Baylor Woods. Gavin is later seen walking by a police tent in the woods and he is turned away. He hides outside the cabin that Holly is hiding from the police in. Gavin texts Victor that he is en route to Holly's location. Victor texts back that the necklace is top priority and Holly is expendable. Later Gavin replies that Holly is disabled and the necklace is missing after he sees Holly on fire when the cabin explodes.

On December 2, Victor tells Gavin on the phone that he needs to know what happened to that necklace. If it burned up in the cabin, Gavin will just have to shift through the ashes. Victor says he must have the diamonds as they are pivotal to his next step.

On January 17, 2023; Victor calls Gavin who is at the Parisian Cassadine Compound and asks how their guest is doing. Victor asks if there is any sign of trouble and tells Gavin to stay alert and to double security. Victor hasn't been able to locate Anna and Valentin and they just might be headed Gavin's way after The Hook was revealed to be Esme's biological mother.

On January 18, a French woman named Rene Laveque met with Gavin Crawford in Paris as she wanted to work with Victor and Esme while Esme was remanded to Spring Ridge Prison.
