In August 2014, Nick calls Grace and asks her to come back to Genoa City. He meets up with her in a hotel room, where Grace waits for him in her underwear, ready to seduce Nick. He tells her that he has gotten back with Sharon and isn't there for a booty call. Nick wants Grace to help him. He tells her about Cassie's look-alike Mariah Copeland. She was hired by Nick's father Victor Newman to drive Sharon insane. After the plan failed, Sharon took Mariah in. However Nick is questioning Mariah's past. He asks Grace if she can remember Cassie's birth. Grace opens up about the day, telling Nick that she and Sharon's mother Doris were with Sharon in the hospital. While neither of them got to witness Cassie's birth, Grace remembers a nurse named Helen - Mariah's mother. Nick thanks Grace for her help. Grace returns to Genoa City again, this time in November 2014, arriving at Sharon's doorstep to see Mariah for herself; the pair exchange conversation, with Grace admitting she attempted to seduce Nick the last time she was in town months earlier. Infuriated, Sharon throws Grace out, with Grace remarking how she cannot wait to see how things turn out for Sharon and Nick.
