to find out more about his brother's diabetes problems. Raul
(David Lago
) refused to let Diego help him out when his grades started going down. Diego struggled to get around town at first, but he found help from Larry Warton
(David "Shark" Fralick) in getting an apartment, while married couple Nick
(Joshua Morrow
) and Sharon (Sharon Case
) gave him a job at their coffeehouse and working on the Newman ranch.
Diego regularly found himself comforting Sharon, who was having trouble dealing with her problems. Her marriage to Nick suffered when she lost a baby and caught him kissing another woman, so she wanted something more than just comfort from Diego, but he refused to do anything and said he was only her friend nothing more. However, one night, Diego and Sharon made love, then were left guilty when Nick decided to work on his marriage to Sharon.
Nick's sister Victoria
(Heather Tom
) was confused about the friendship between Sharon and Diego, so she decided to pretend to be interested in Diego in order to find out more about the situations. She, however, ended up falling for him and they started a relationship. Just as they were ready to confess their love for each other, Nick found out about Sharon sleeping with Diego and he beat up Diego, then cheated on Sharon again. Victoria broke up with Diego. Diego desperately tried to convince the entire family that the night he spent with Sharon ment nothing to him and that he wasn't the one who initiated it. Victoria believed him and they hooked up again.
Sadly, Victoria's family wouldn't tolerate her being with Diego, so she moved out of the ranch, and the couple moved into a hotel together. Victoria's father Victor
(Eric Braeden
) tried to pay off Diego to leave town, but he wouldn't. Victor gave Diego money, which was later stolen by two thugs who beat up Diego. Diego recovered from his injuries and was keen on getting revenge for the crime against him, completely ignoring the fact that Victoria wanted to lead a normal life with him. Diego hatched a plot with Larry to get revenge on the thugs and it worked. Victoria was upset over how different Diego had become and they split, causing Diego to leave Genoa City behind.
