On the day Willow gave her notice for her teaching job, Valentin and Nina arrived to discuss putting Charlotte into an advanced placement program. Things turned ugly because Nina felt Willow was leaving her students high and dry. Willow told Nina she was a bad role model for Charlotte, and as the arguing escalated, Valentin convinced Nina to leave the classroom. Nina was happy that Willow would no longer be Charlotte's teacher.
Meanwhile, Nina's mother, Madeline Reeves (Donna Mills), had told her that she lost her baby while in a coma. For years, Nina agonized over the fact that she would never get to know her child. What she didn't know was that she actually gave birth to twins, and Madeline gave both up for adoption separately. One became the vindictive Nelle Benson (Chloe Lanier), and the other was Willow. Her adoptive mother, Harmony Miller (Inga Cadranel), kept her maternity secret until she was on her death bed when she finally told Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) the truth but made her swear to keep it secret.
Nina and Valentin eventually split up, and Nina at first was on good terms with Willow and Carly — at least, after they got past Nina being an overbearing stepmom to Charlotte. Not knowing that Nelle or Willow were hers, Nina testified against Nelle in court so that Willow and Michael Corinthos (Chad Duell) could obtain full custody of Wiley Corinthos.
