Matthew and Destiny Evans finally enter into a relationship and later have sex. Soon after though Matthew is punched by Nate Salinger and is declared brain dead while Destiny discovers she is pregnant with Matthew's child. Jessica's memory returns but her happiness is short lived as Tess returns and wreaks havoc in Llanview. She marries Robert Ford but later divorces him and marries Cutter who is still hell bent on getting the Buchanan money. Cutter later blackmails and extorts from Clint a piece of the Buchanan fortune, along with ownership of The Buchanan Mansion, in exchange for committing Tess/Jessica into St. Anne's after being fed up with all of her DID alters. Cutter later loses ownership of the mansion (and is also divorced from Tess/Jessica when Aubrey's friend Rama Patel (Shenaz Treasurywala) blackmails Cutter with a "dirty little secret" that he's been hiding from Aubrey when Ford presents him with divorce papers so that he can freely marry Tess after Ford helps her escape from St. Anne's.) when Clint relinquishes the deed from him (thanks to a loophole in the deed stating Clint can take back the mansion from him anytime he wanted to!) to give the mansion to Rex after he extorts it from Clint in exchange for his estranged father to get his dead fiance Gigi's heart after Clint had a heart attack. Cutter also loses his piece of the family fortune when the Buchanans take most of it back from him when he didn't stash most of the cash in the bank.
