Victor applies pressure at Newman Media

At Newman Media on The Young and the Restless, Victor praised Adam for his recent work, especially the stories highlighting Nikki’s role at Chancellor. But he still wasn’t satisfied as he wanted damaging articles about Billy. Adam suggested waiting for a second media wave, but Victor pushed for immediate action, saying it was about gaining power over Jack, not personal revenge.

They also talked about the upcoming Dumas party. Adam was surprised to hear that Nick invited Sharon, but said he was happy for her as long as Nick didn’t hurt her again. Victor, meanwhile, made it clear he planned to win Dumas over and ruin Billy at the same time.

When Chelsea showed up and asked for a meeting, Victor agreed to see her at Crimson Lights. After Victor left, Adam asked what she was up to.

Nikki’s admission and Sally’s fear

Back at Society on The Young and the Restless, Nikki updated Victor on her earlier conversation with Chelsea. She admitted that she had advised Chelsea to offer him a deal instead of fighting a losing battle. Victor listened closely, but it wasn’t clear if Nikki’s suggestion would soften his attitude or just make him more cautious about Chelsea’s motives.

Meanwhile, at the GCAC on The Young and the Restless, Billy and Sally discussed their upcoming trip to Nice. However, the tone of their conversation changed when Billy shared his suspicions about Aristotle Dumas.

He believed Dumas might be gathering allies to turn against Victor, and that they could get caught in the middle of something dangerous. Although Billy tried to downplay the risk, Sally became visibly worried and began to wonder if attending the party was a good idea after all.

Billy did his best to calm her down, assuring her that they could always leave if things got out of hand and find somewhere peaceful to enjoy their trip. Despite the tension, Billy couldn’t hide his excitement. He hinted that this trip could bring changes not just for them, but for others in Genoa City as well. Whether those changes would be good or bad, only time would tell.
