Y&R Daily Scoop – Victoria Frets About Her Grown Daughter
“I want you to keep my name out of it,” Victor will tell them. “The mystery investor will remain a mystery.” So, Kyle will ask why he wants to remain anonymous. But Victor will say there’s no reason, he just wants the company to succeed. “I expect great things from both of you,” he’ll add and leave.
Meanwhile, Cole Howard (J. Eddie Peck) will tell Victoria and Claire he was hoping the three of them could have dinner together. But Claire will say she has other plans; she’s going to dinner with Kyle. And Victoria won’t be happy about it.
“Are you sure you should be going?” Victoria will ask. “Kyle is your boss. I don’t like it.” Claire will tell her she’s not worried and she shouldn’t be either. However, Victoria will fret over her grown daughter, as if she’s a 10-year-old. But as usual Cole will calm her down, slightly.
Claire will meet Kyle at Society and he’ll tell her Summer Newman (Allison Lanier) is considering revisiting their custody arrangement. Of course, she’ll wonder if it’s because of her. “Summer doesn’t like who I’m going into business with, Audra Charles,” Kyle will reply.
He’ll admit that his mom fired him from Jabot, and he’ll be helping Audra run a cosmetics company, so the timing is perfect. Claire will tell Kyle revenge is never worth it. But he’ll say the new job isn’t about payback. “I can leave the family company without any guilt,” Kyle will tell her. “I’m free to show what Kyle Abbott can achieve when he’s not being held back by good old mom and dad.”
Kyle will say he’s in the mood for champagne, so he’ll order some. As he and Claire hold up their glasses for a toast, she’ll tell him she’s never really been a drinker. Her aunt told her it clouds people’s judgement. However, she’s curious – they’ll toast and she’ll take a sip.
Young And The Restless Scoop – Diane Says Victor Knew About Kyle
At Crimson Lights, Michael will catch up with Diane. She’ll say she was happy to get his call, she needed someone to vent to. “I fired Kyle from Jabot this morning.” Michael will say it sounds like a Greek tragedy. Then Diane will tell him she thinks Kyle already has another job.
“The timing is interesting,” Michael will reply. “I have the sneaking suspicion that Kyle’s job can be traced right back to…Victor.” Michael will add that after Victor fired him, he gave him a loyalty test, asking him to rekindle his friendship with her.
Not surprisingly, Diane will be offended. She’ll ask Michael if that’s why he called her. But Michael will deny it. “After he asked me to do this, he asked Cole to cozy up to Kyle,” he’ll add. “What’s the common denominator between you and Kyle?” And a lightbulb will go off in Diane’s head. “This has to do with Jack.”
But she’ll ask why Michael is betraying Victor’s trust. “Because I get this sense that I might have to step in and protect Victor from himself,” he’ll reply. “More importantly, I care about you, Diane.” Then Victor will walk in, and he’ll sit down with them.
“I understand your son Kyle is leaving Jabot,” he’ll say. He’s not surprised because Kyle always complains about working with his parents. “I’m not blaming you for his dissatisfaction, I’m blaming Jack. He made the egregious mistake of appointing you co-CEO.” So, Diane will ask what he’s up to.
Victor will say he’s just amusing himself, and he’ll make it clear he doesn’t like her. “But my loathing of your husband supersedes that,” he’ll add. “I hope you both end up desperate and alone and miserable.” Then Victor tell Michael to meet him at the ranch.
Finally, Diane will return home and tell Jack she was having a coffee with Michael. But then Victor showed up and he knew Kyle had left Jabot. A confused Jack will ask how Victor would know that. Then Kyle will walk in. “What are you up to with Victor Newman?” Jack will ask his son.
