On the other hand, some fans of The Young and the Restless commented that they quickly notice the mistakes made by the writers, and the fact that Adam is nothing like his father, Victor.

Here's what's happening between the father-son duo at the Newmans on The Young and the Restless

On the daytime soap opera The Young and the Restless, the father-son duo has been in a rocky relationship. Adam was raised by his mother, Hope Wilson, and he presumes Cliff (Hope's husband) to be his biological father. However, when Hope was dying, she revealed that Victor is his real biological father and not Cliff.

Upon this shocking revelation, differences grew in the Newman household. Adam always finds it difficult to find his place at the Newman Mansion and their family Business, The Newman Enterprises. Adam's relationship with his siblings, Nick and Victoria has been a rocky one as well. Particularly with Nick, as the two have had several conflicts over the power dynamics at the Newman Enterprise.

In the current scenario of The Young and the Restless, Adam and Victor are in conflict over their contrasting business views. Victor, who has a desperation to take down the Abbotts, is convincing Adam to publicly take down Billy Abbott. However, Adam Newman is against that and decides to not go ahead with Victor's plan. On This has caused some major drama between the two and given rise to new problems.

On the other hand, Adam is trying to stay calm because of Chelsea Lawson. As the two are entangled in a romantic relationship and navigating their lives together, Chelsea, who also finds it difficult to work at the Newman Media, is planning to leave. However, Adam convinced her and reassured her that he is there to support her and stand for her.
