IfGeneral Hospitalallows Rocco, his parents, or Obrecht to learn that Britt is alive, that will make this situation even more complicated. Additionally, Brennan wanted Britt’s continued existence to be a secret, and he may need to take action to stop Carly from realizing that Josslyn is on a mission involving her, leading to extreme drama in Port Charles.
