WHAT HAPPENS IN BADEN-BADEN… Will GH’s Jordan Ashford’s Trip With Michael Corinthos End With A Sexy Little Twist?

JORDAN ASHFORD HAS ONE SHOULDER TO LEAN ON IN GERMANY

TL;DR: On General Hospital, Jordan Ashford is far from home and leaning hard on Michael Corinthos in Baden-Baden, and one vulnerable night could turn a friendly shoulder into a secret nobody can hide for long.

Jordan Ashford Packed Courage For Germany, Not Her Boyfriend

Jordan Ashford is a long way from home, running on nerves, and pacing a German doctor’s office with exactly one person who knows what she is up against. That person is Michael Corinthos, and he has made himself very easy to lean on. He got her into the Baden-Baden clinic, flew over with her, and left Jason Morgan to cover for him at work. Then he promised to stay for about a week, which is a long time to be somebody’s only shoulder.

Michael is also very good at the small stuff. He asked her to hang in, swapped spätzle opinions until a nurse called her name, and sat through her thank-you for every tour he has taken her on. He said he has enjoyed them. Plenty of couples have started with less.

When Jordan came out of her meeting with Dr. Muller, she told Michael she was in, they hugged, and she explained that the odds are in her favor even with her one kidney. Michael said he would like to see her through her first treatment. Jordan answered that she was hoping he would say that. That is not how a woman talks about an airport ride.

The Man Who Told Her To Go Has Problems Of His Own

Curtis Ashford pushed Jordan out the door for his own peace of mind. She offered to cancel the trip and spend the time with him, he refused, and she promised to fly back soon. Meanwhile, he is stuck in limbo, worried about being sent back to Pentonville, and not exactly in a position to ask who is carrying her bags.

The flight over was telling. Jordan and Michael got around to Portia Robinson and Curtis, and they talked about how things with both of them are not the best. Michael could not see why. A woman who feels shaky at home, seated next to a man who has volunteered for every job from tour guide to clinic matchmaker, is writing the first chapter of an affair without realizing it.

Michael Has A Theory About Doomed Marriages

Michael has strong views on how affairs happen. He thinks his marriage to Willow Tait was doomed from the start, so her affair was only the paperwork. Jordan Ashford called that a cop-out, which is exactly the sort of thing a woman says right before she tests the theory herself.

Is it possible one vulnerable night in Germany turns that cop-out into a confession? Imagine a week of cover, no spouse, no sister, no questions, and a man who believes the past explains everything. Jordan’s treatment is serious, and nobody could blame her for reaching for comfort. But comfort has a way of leaving evidence.

Say it happens. An affair would rattle Curtis, Portia, and everybody who thinks Michael is the dependable one. And if Jordan comes home and needs a pregnancy test a few weeks later, no time zone is big enough to hide that. Whose secret would it be, and who would tell Curtis?

Would Jordan and Michael keep a secret like that? Tell us in the comments below, we’re dying to hear it!

Some Souvenirs Don’t Fit In A Carry-On

Jordan Ashford went to Baden-Baden for treatment, not romance, and nobody should begrudge her a friend while she fights for it. Still, a lonely hotel, a kind man, and a long week make the oldest recipe in daytime. Is Michael the friend she needs, or the secret she cannot afford?
