General Hospital spoilers and updates tease Sonny Corinthos (Maurice Benard) will confront Ava Jerome (Maura West) when he hears what happened to Austin Gatlin-Holt (Roger Howarth) Sonny wants to know if Ava had trouble and took Austin out!
Ava Jerome Was Very Angry
Ava is enraged after Sonny revealed to her that Austin and his cousin Mason Gatlin (Nathanyael Grey) were employed by Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober).
She was also upset with Austin because, via Laura Collins (Genie Francis), she discovered that Adam Huss’s character, Nikolas Cassadine, is still alive!
Austin insisted he didn’t know about Mason’s months-long extortion regarding Nikolas’ body, but she knew he did.
When Austin did show up at her art gallery, Ava had a falling out with him and told him she never wanted to see him again. However, that was the last time she saw him. Sadly, Austin’s wish is granted when he is discovered shot to death.
Sonny Corinthos Finds Out Austin Gatlin-Holt Disappeared
First Sonny learns Austin disappeared, because Dante Falconeri’s (Dominic Zamprogna) started a search for him and no one can find him-he’s MIA at the hospital as well.
Sonny had confronted their boss Cyrus at his new employer, the Port Charles Grille and had heard Austin went missing right afterwards-and that Austin was going to flip on him.
Dante had gotten a deal with Robert Scorpio (Tristan Rogers) to keep Austin a silent witness and immunity from prosecution but hadn’t heard back.
Sonny knows that Ava will be getting some hard questions because she was involved with Austin, and so he asks her first if she had trouble and she took him out!
Ava Jerome Is Shocked At The News
Sonny finds out that Dante and Harrison Chase (Josh Swickard) have gone to Pautauk looking for Austin and the results are not good news.
Ava will be questioned as a person of interest in his murder, but Ava denies to Sonny she did it, although she was mad enough to.
She didn’t kill Austin, and now that Mason is in jail, she doesn’t know who did, so even though she was angry with him, she decided that worrying about being held accountable for Nikolas’ passing was enough.
Ava makes some calls ahead of time because she is aware that she should never answer any questions without an attorney there.
Both Ava and Sonny believe Cyrus hired a hitman to kill Austin after learning of his visit to the PCPD to speak with Dante!
