In 2008 Victor became intrigued by Sabrina Costelana, a friend of Victoria's from Florence, Italy. She awakened in him an enjoyment of modern art, inspiring Victor to open Genoa City's first modern art gallery. His daughter's world was rocked when she learned about her father and her best friend were seeing each other. Their close relationship soon evolved into love, and Victor proposed marriage. Sabrina happily accepted and the happy couple announced the news to Victoria, Nick and Adam.

Victor and Sabrina's engagement has provoked quite a stir: Victoria has turned on Sabrina even more, and feels that she's nothing more than a gold-digger; recently, when Sabrina asked Victoria to be her Matron of Honor, Victoria refused. Nicholas has sided with his sister, prompting Victor to ask Adam to serve as his Best Man instead. And, as always, Nikki is watching the blossoming relationship closely. She sees the same pattern that always surrounds Victor's new relationships, and doesn't think it will last.

Meanwhile, Victor shifted Victoria's position within Newman Enterprises, which only made her more bitter about Adam's presence, enough so that she decided to leave her father's company. Newman Enterprises is a fictional business on the CBS daytime drama The Young and the Restless. Adam then moved into Victoria's office at Newman, and accepted Victor's offer to come live at the Ranch.
