The reason Serena’s parents got together in the first place was a convoluted one.
Initially, Domonique and Scott hated one another.
Together, along with Julia Barett, they founded a perfume brand called “Deception.”
However, Scott and Dominique were an extremely incompatible pair in business and were rarely seen getting along.
Surprisingly, before their issues were even resolved, the two were wed in a shocking turn of events.
They immediately decided to get the marriage annulled.
But the papers didn’t come quickly enough.
Amidst their lengthy processing time, the pair fell in love and decided to stay husband and wife.
Sadly, doctors discovered that she was suffering from a deadly brain tumor.
This sudden reality was a shocking plot twist for “General Hospital” fans.
All of her loved ones were there to celebrate her and say a devastating goodbye.
Before she died, Dominique decided she wanted to have a child with Scott.
Given the state of her health, she could not carry the child herself.
However, she sadly died before the baby girl was born.
Upon dying, Dominique Stanton left Serena and her father, Scott Baldwin, $100,000,000.
Scott took Serena and headed north to hide in Canada.
In 1997, it was revealed that Serena was missing, and Scott was sent into further panic.
However, it turned out that this was not the case.
