The Beginning
Nikki Newman andPhyllis Summers Newman came up with an idea to create wellness spas under the Jabot umbrella, and took it to Jack Abbott who promptly shot it down as not feasible considering Jabot's instability. Phyllis and Jack had it out, and she quit her new job as Jabot Executive of Internet Affairs. So Nikki and Phyllis presented the idea toVictor Newman instead, and he agreed to fund the project, joined the partnership, gave them an office in Newman Towers, and they called it NVP after Nikki, Victor and Phyllis.Jack wants and gets NVP Back
So Jack filed a lawsuit against them, which was the final split in his on-again/off-again relationship with Phyllis.
Sharon Newman Abbott signed on as Spokesperson for NVP. Not long afterward Victor became afflicted with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy and was duped by Jack into selling him NVP and making him CEO, with a stipulation that Victor would have final say on all decisions.Controversial Clear Springs Project
The controversial NVP spa project known as Clear Springs had everyone at Newman taking sides. Jack, Victor, Phyllis and Nick's position is that this large development would revitalize a dying town, and Nikki, Brad, and Victoria were opposed as it would wipe out historic structures in the town. Nikki and Neil ran for the vacant Newman board seat to boost the votes for their side, and thanks to Phyllis's blackmail of Brad over his affair with Sharon, Victor's yes-man Neil won, so they appear to have the upper hand on Clear Springs. But Brad got Phyllis arrested for extortion, she was found guilty, and did jail time for this.
NVP cliff hanger photo shoot
In April 2007, Sharon told Drucilla she was being blackmailed by Phyllis over her affair with Brad Carlton. When Sharon and Phyllis began fighting on the edge of a cliff during a NVP photo shoot, Dru intervened. When all lost hold of the cell phone they were fighting over, they lost her balance and fell backward. Dru sailed off the cliff into the river below, and Sharon was left hanging onto the edge for her life.
Nikki's Solo Owner
Victor returned as arrogant and controlling as ever, still intent on somehow bringing Jack down. It wasn't until weeks later, and after he'd agreed to sell NVP to Nikki, that he discovered Jack had sold Jabot to Katherine, so he had lost his leverage over Jack. Livid with Jack, Kay, and Ji Min for outwitting him, Victor lit into Nikki for not warning him, telling her he only sold her NVP so she would have to sell her Jabot stock, then he could go after Jack, not to please her! Nikki has had it with his pompous behavior, has moved out, and divorce appears to be looming. She has asked David Chow to work for her running NVP, and he has accepted, knowing full well that Victor is going to be out for revenge.
Victor's Solo Owner
The company was ran by Nikki and David until, Nikki and Victor divorce became official in January 2008. After which, the divorce judge awarded Nikki control of her due profits of Victor's estate and Victor gained control of NVP. As Victor became the sole owner (due to Phyllis having to step down after her blackmail scandal) he made it a subsidiary of
