Devon said it couldn\u2019t have been better. The baby was at happy in Devon\u2019s home. Victor said Abby may have left town, and Devon said that she\u2019d mentioned that she might do that. Devon was worried he played a part in Abby leaving. He\u2019d talked to her about his experience with grief, and he\u2019d told her about the importance of not only leaning on your support system, but taking time for yourself. Victor was upset that Abby didn\u2019t bring the baby to him and Nikki, but he understood why she chose Devon. Victor appreciated what Devon did for Abby and Dominic, but he said babies were a lot of responsibility. Devon was sure he was up for it. He was more than happy to take care of Dominic, but he was worried about Abby. Victor was concerned about Abby\u2019s state of mind. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victor texted Abby, and she didn\u2019t reply. He asked if Abby said anything that would hint at where she went. All Abby said to Devon was that she might leave to clear her head. Devon was worried that Abby went to Valencia, Spain. Nikki came in and was happy to see Devon and the baby. Victor said Abby had gone off somewhere, which made Nikki worried. She thought Victor might be able to find out where she went. He knew she didn\u2019t take the Newman jet. He said he\u2019d have his people find out if Abby took a commercial flight. Devon decided to do some digging too. Victor left, and Devon was going to do the same, but Nikki wanted to talk to him. Nikki thought Devon was doing something kind and brave. He said that Abby and Dominic were his family now. Nikki said to ask if he needed help, because single parenthood wasn\u2019t easy. He said he wasn\u2019t alone \u2013 Amanda and Moses were supportive, thought he didn\u2019t plan to lean on them, because he had it under control. Nikki said it took a village, and she was here to help. He said of course. She didn\u2019t know how long Abby would be gone, but she wanted him to know he had support, jut in case he needed to keep Dominic for awhile. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Abby was in a motel room. She told Chance that she needed to get out of that house with everyone hovering over her like she was a piece of glass. She had a box with her that was filled with mementos that Chance had gathered. She thought that sorting through it would help her feel his presence. She picked up a medal, and she remembered pricking her finger when she was pinning it on his chest. He\u2019d pricked his finger too, and he\u2019d called it a blood oath that they\u2019d always be there for each other. She believed him then, and she believed him now. She picked up another medal that he got after Iraq. He\u2019d downplayed it, but she knew it meant a lot to him because it was in the box. \u201cMy modest hero,\u201d she said. She looked through pictures, and she didn\u2019t know who the people were. She assumed it was from his time in Iraq, and he hadn\u2019t told her much about his time there. It was like he\u2019d locked it away. She knew she told everyone she accepted that he was gone, but in her heart, she felt that he was alive. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Abby begged Chance to talk to her. She said this medal was for bravery, and now she had to be brave. She heard Chance saying that he didn\u2019t deserve this medal and that some day, he wanted to give it to the people who really deserved it. Abby remembered Chance telling her that this medal was for a rescue mission \u2013 he\u2019d transported troops to the base after a bomb went off. Abby looked through the photos of the soldiers. He\u2019d said the real heroes were the medics at the field hospital. She found a picture of a smiling man and woman, and on the back, it said they were Errol and Kim Dunaway. Abby heard Chance\u2019s voice as the memory of what he\u2019d said came back to her. He\u2019d told her that Errol and Kim treated him like a son, and they were the medics who deserved the medal. She remembered he\u2019d told her that he kept in touch with Errol and Kim, even after he retired. She jumped up and looked for the letters in an envelope, and she found them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">There was an envelope with Errol and Kim Dunaway\u2019s address on it. They lived in Majorca, and Abby looked that up and learned that it wasn\u2019t too far from Valencia. Abby called the operator and asked to be connected to the Dunaway\u2019s phone line. A woman answered and Abby introduced herself, assuming that it was Kim. She asked if Kim or her husband had been in contact with Chance over the last six months. The lady said it was the wrong number. Abby said she had something that Chance said belonged to the Dunaways. The lady reiterated that it was the wrong number, and Abby said Chance had a son. The lady replied that they had a bad connection and ended the call. Abby called the operator again and reconnected to the line, but this time nobody picked up. Abby was sure the thing about the bad connection was a clue. The lady called back, speaking rapidly because she didn\u2019t have much time. She confirmed that she was Kim, and she said that she\u2019d stepped outside to return the call so \u201che\u201d wouldn\u2019t overhear. \u201cChance. He\u2019s here. Alive, but he\u2019s in a bad way. He needs you,\u201d Kim said, then she ended the call. Abby smiled and digested the information. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Devon was back home, and Louise, the nanny was there. She left for the Chancellor house to grab more of Dominic\u2019s things. Devon walked Louise out and found a note that had been slipped under the door. It was from Abby saying that knowing Dominic was safe with him was the only time she could do this, and she did need to do it, not just for her, but for the baby. She sent all her love to Dominic, and said that this was going to take longer than she thought. \u201cAbby what the hell did you do?,\u201d Devon wondered. Devon called Denise, the Private Investigator and asked her to come out of retirement once again, to find Abby.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">An exhausted Billy and Lily were still at work, wearing the same clothes from the night before. She was about to publish something, and he asked if she was sure about this. She was \u2013 they\u2019d already shown the words to the lawyers, and everyone was in agreement that this was their best option. It was just hard for him to believe that, after pulling an all-nighter, these were the best three lines they had. She read it to him again, so he could see if he wanted to add anything. \u201cChancellor Communications did not intend to publish yesterday\u2019s expose of Ashland Locke. We were victims of an illegal hack and the article was published without our knowledge or approval. We are investigating the security breach and regret the error.\u201d Billy and Lily acknowledged that the statement just looked like they were trying to save themselves. She said she had to go on record about this though, because it could help save them from future lawsuits. He wondered what it said about him that he wanted to double down. He noted that everything in the article was true. He thought they could stick it to Adam, Victor and Ashland by telling the truth and standing by the story. She knew, but she said they couldn\u2019t prove it was true. She told him they had to publish, this, and he nodded, but he wasn\u2019t happy. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Lily said that they were a media company, and as co-CEOs, the responsibility lay with them. \u201cI couldn\u2019t agree more,\u201d Rey said, as he walked in. Billy didn\u2019t have the time or patience for more baseless accusations. Rey was here because Adam said that Billy tried to blackmail him \u2013 threatening to publish an article unless Adam backed off ChanComm. Billy said this was a plot by Victor. Rey thought Billy made good on his threat, since he\u2019d published the article. Billy told Rey that his email was hacked and message was sent to a reporter telling here to release a story that was never intended to be published. Billy said that ChancComm already printed a full retraction. Lily asked Rey why he was taking Adam seriously. Rey said Adam had a recording of Billy blackmailing him. Billy said Adam could claim what he wanted, bt the Newmans were the real criminals. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Rey produced the recording Adam gave him and played it for Billy and Lily. In the conversation with Adam, Billy said he wouldn\u2019t publish the article if Adam, Ashland and Victor stopped attacking ChancComm. Billy said that was an out of context business negotiation, and it couldn\u2019t be used in court because he didn\u2019t give Adam authorization to record him. Rey said there was more \u2013 a video sent by Jesse Gaines that supported the claims of blackmail. Lily said that was enough. She asked if was this an official interrogation, and if they needed lawyers. Billy acknowledged that the Newmans covered all their bases. He asked if Rey was going to arrest him. Rey wasn\u2019t here to arrest Billy. He was just here to do a thorough investigation before he submitted anything to the DA. He wanted to see any proof they had of the email hack, since that was a federal crime. Billy said the IT team was looking into it, but they hadn\u2019t figured out how the breach happened yet. Lily said this was all a calculated move against ChancComm. Rey knew Adam and Rey weren\u2019t saints, and the layers of deception and double-cross were clear, but he followed the evidence, so his hands were tied unless Billy and Lily had proof. Rey left. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Ashland went to Newman Media, and Adam said ChancComm just printed their retraction. \u201cChancComm looks as ineffectual as we knew they would,\u201d Adam stated. Adam noticed that Ashland looked energized, and he hoped that mean there was good news at the clinic. Ashland said he was put on an experimental protocol, and he\u2019d already received a full regimen of the treatment. Adam was glad, and he was sure Victoria was relieved. Ashland was happier for Victoria than he was for himself \u2013 she\u2019d never admit it, but the illness took a toll on her. Talk turned back to the plot, and Adam said that it was time for Ashland to make his move. Ashland had already put it in motion. \u201cI almost feel bad kicking Billy when he\u2019s down. Almost,\u201d Ashland stated, smiling. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Billy called Adam. \u201cYou\u2019ve made your point. What do you want?,\u201d Billy asked. Billy admitted that Victor, Adam and Ashland\u2019s plan appeared to be working. Adam told Billy that it was a blunder to publish that article. Billy noted that Adam hacked into the system and published the article. Adam said that Billy shouldn\u2019t have trusted Gaines \u2013 the moral of the story was to never rely on a blackmailer. Lily asked what Billy wanted. Adam wanted them to fold and close the business. He thought the retraction read like a pathetic attempt to create a defense. Lily said they weren\u2019t going to hand over the keys that easily. Adam said Newman Media would pay a decent price to take the company off their hands. Billy said ChancComm wasn\u2019t for sale, especially to the likes of them. Adam was sure that ChancComm would lose subscribers and ad revenue. Lily refused to go down without a fight. Adam was ready for that, but he told them they\u2019d drown in lawsuits and legal fees, and they wouldn\u2019t have time for journalism. Just then, a courier arrived and served Lily and Billy with papers. Ashland was suing for libel. Billy snapped that the gloves were off, and he hung up. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Billy ranted about the insanity of being sued for an article they didn\u2019t intend to publish. And every word of the article was true. Lily wasn\u2019t surprised the next move was to bury them in lawsuits. Billy said that if Newman Media destroyed ChancComm\u2019s reputation, it\u2019d destroy the company. Lily and Billy didn\u2019t think Rey would back off. Billy thought Rey knew they were set up, though. Billy hoped that things would work out. Lily didn\u2019t think they should rely on Rey. Billy suggested they should get a Newman on his side. He\u2019d talked to Victoria, who\u2019d called him every name in the book. He didn\u2019t think Victoria knew what Newman Media was up to, but Lily suggested that Victoria was in on it. Lily called the legal team, and Billy called Victoria to ask if she was on board with this plan to destroy his company. Lily told the legal team that Ashland confessed to the Newman family, so maybe they could get one of them to go on record and admit he was lying now. Lily conceded that this was unlikely to happen. She acknowledged that they had no choice but to keep searching for evidence. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Lily went to Society and asked the waiter if they\u2019d seen Billy. Ashland was there and asked if Billy skipped town because he couldn\u2019t take the heat. Lily asked Ashland why he was trying to ruin them. She\u2019d defended him to Billy, and she regretted that now. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victor was at home, and he called someone and told them to find Abby. Billy showed up. He said he\u2019d bypassed the other two minions and come straight to the source because this was really about Victor\u2019s hatred for him. Victor said that Adam and Ashland had plenty of their own hatred for Billy. Billy had a proposal \u2013 all the attacks stopped, Victor convinced Ashland to withdraw the lawsuit, and Billy would step down from ChancComm. Victor asked why Billy would fold so quickly. Billy said that Lily didn\u2019t deserve to be punished like this. \u201cI failed,\u201d Billy said. \u201cYou win.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Rey went to Crimson Lights. Sharon worried for Abby. Rey wasn\u2019t really focused on what she was saying. He explained that he was thinking about a case that was gnawing on him. It had low ethics, high stakes, but it wasn\u2019t clear what side to believe. There might be enough evidence to arrest one party for blackmail, but Rey was pretty sure that would be playing into the other party\u2019s hands, and he wasn\u2019t about to be used as a pawn. It was clear to him that some underhanded business was in the works. Sharon said he could stop being vague. She appreciated it if was doing that to protect her, but she knew this was about Billy and Adam. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Rey said Adam and Billy were lobbing accusations at each other and engaging Rey in the battle. Sharon suggested Rey stay out of it if it was just business warfare. Rey wished he could, but it seemed Billy\u2019s tactics were illegal. Rey was trying to stay impartial, but neither Billy nor Adam looked innocent. There was evidence against Billy, but Billy had made some valid counterclaims against Adam, though he had no proof. Sharon said Rey convinced her to stay out of the conflict between Billy and Adam, and maybe she should do the same for him. He wished he could, but this was his job. She knew that, but she was worried about him. She knew that Adam and Victor would go to extremes to damage Billy\u2019s reputation, but wouldn\u2019t Rey\u2019s reputation be damaged if he didn\u2019t arrest Billy? He never said he wouldn\u2019t arrest Billy, but he didn\u2019t want to jump the gun. He wanted to talk things through with the DA. He\u2019d rather end the war, not facilitate it. She admired that, but she suggested that wasn\u2019t his job. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Faith and Moses were at Crimson Lights. He told her about Dominic staying with Devon because Abby couldn\u2019t take care of him. Faith worried for her aunt Abby when she heard this. Faith told Moses that Abby lost her first baby. They felt for Abby &#8211; she\u2019d lost her her husband, and now it was like she lost Dominic. Moses hoped it\u2019d make Faith feel better to know that Dominic was okay. He said Devon was in full on dad mode. Moses thought Devon was the best \u2013 he\u2019d been a father figure to Moses. Moses was sure Devon would be there for Dominic too, since he was kind of the baby\u2019s dad now. Faith said Dominic would never meet or remember Chance, but Abby was different, and there was no telling how long it\u2019d take for her to get over this. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/index.php\/daytime\/days\/\">Back to the Main Days of Our Lives Page<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/index.php\/2020\/05\/24\/yrupdates\/\">Back to the Y&amp;R Updates Page<\/a><\/p>\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- TVMEGBODY -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-1056557952271337\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"8801203268\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6098\" src=\"https:\/\/tvmeg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/yranim2.gif\" alt=\"Y&amp;R cast animation\" width=\"202\" height=\"200\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Young &amp; The Restless Update Recap written by Christine Devon brought Dominic to see Victor at the main house. \u201cHow was the first overnight with our little boy?,\u201d Victor asked.
