In recent weeks on The Young and the Restless, Phyllis Summers faced a dilemma as she tried to look for a purpose in life, with her daughter away from town and her son refusing to work with her. While she sought comfort from her former spouse, Nick, both she and Nick were chastised by Sharon.

Elsewhere, Amanda arrived to legally represent the elusive Dumas, while Lily tried to position Damian to get to his boss. Meanwhile, Billy, though clueless about why Dumas is collaborating with him, was eager to use the alliance to bring down Adam Newman. At the same time, the Newman patriarch positioned Audra to separate Claire from Kyle.

The Young and the Restless: Chance Chancellor's current arc

Chance Chancellor was very active during the series of crimes in Genoa City perpetrated by the criminal duo, Ian and Jordan. Initially, he was forced to handcuff Daniel for Heather's murder, followed by arresting Sharon. However, after Sharon's medicines were found tampered with, he had to release her.

Later, he tirelessly looked for the kidnapped Sharon and Phyllis after the two rivals went missing simultaneously. Soon, his police team, along with Billy and Nick, managed to rescue the two women from the dilapidated psychiatric ward. His current story arc in The Young and the Restless portrays him as a dedicated law enforcer.

On the personal side, he shared a cozy romance with Summer Newman after her separation from Kyle Abbott. However, by December 2024, the two lovers were at odds when Chance arrested Daniel based on situational evidence. While Chance explained that he was doing his duty, Summer was upset with him for treating her brother like a criminal.

Unable to find a common ground, Summer decided to step away from the relationship. While Chance hoped for her understanding, she confided her decision to her former husband, Kyle. On one hand, she nursed a hope to get back with Kyle, while on the other, she exhibited jealous behavior towards Claire, Kyle's new love.

While fans awaited a Summer-Chance reunion, Summer left for Europe to look for a new designer for her fashion line in Friday's episode, dated May 2, 2025. As such, Chance is left in town without any romantic partner.
