Victor asked about Elena and told Nate to hold onto her. Nate thought it was fortuitous that he ran into Victor. He was contemplating a big change in his life, and he could see both sides. Victor wondered why Nate was asking him this. Nate said Victor\u2019s name would be on his paycheck. Things were different now that Nate couldn\u2019t perform surgery. Ashland made it clear Nate could make a bigger impact and help people on a global scale. Victor said Newman Locke would be a good place to work. He told Nate to ask himself it would be rewarding. Nate said Ashland was certain it was. Victor replied that Ashland was certain about a number of things. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victor asked Nate how Ashland was doing. Nate said he seemed to be doing well. Victor mused about the treatment. Nate mentioned that Michael asked him about the treatment too. Nate knew Michael was working for Victor, and he asked if it was a coincidence that they were both asking the same line of questioning. Victor said he was genuinely concerned about Ashland\u2019s health \u2013 Ashland was family now, and family meant everything to Victor. Nate didn\u2019t mean to imply that it didn\u2019t. Nate just sensed there was more to this, but he didn\u2019t have what Victor was looking for, and even if he did, he wouldn\u2019t share it. Nate wasn\u2019t Ashland\u2019s doctor, but he believed medical information was private. Victor didn\u2019t want Nate to violate his ethics. Nate said it was more than that \u2013 Ashland was a friend, and Nate wouldn\u2019t betray his confidence. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Jack was startled to hear that the address from the mysterious texts he\u2019d received was owned by someone named Hao Nguyen. That was his ex father in law\u2019s name, but Jack was sure that Luan\u2019s father wasn\u2019t behind it. Phyllis asked why Jack was so sure his ex father in law wasn\u2019t trying to get him to come to LA. Jack said that Hao Nguyen died long before Luan married Jack. Phyllis wondered how it was that a person with the same name as Jack\u2019s dead father in law was sending him cryptic texts. According to Jack, Keemo changed his last name to Nguyen to honor his mother. Phyllis asked if Jack supported that, and he said it did. Phyllis asked what if the texter was Keemo, having fun with his dad by sending him creepy texts. Jack didn\u2019t think Keemo would do that. Phyllis asked if Jack and Keemo were on good terms. Jack said yeah, but his expression said otherwise. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Jack called the mystery number, and nobody answered, and there was no voicemail set up. For a second time, Phyllis suggested calling Keemo. An uncomfortable Jack said he didn\u2019t know his son\u2019s number. According to Jack, Keemo kept losing phones and changing his number. Traci walked over after her spa appointment and wanted to know what was going on. Jack said it was nothing, but Phyllis was happy to share the details. Phyllis said someone was trying to get Jack to come to L.A. Jack added that the person said it was something he was missing. Phyllis explained why she thought it was Keemo. Traci thought they should just call him, forcing Jack to admit he didn\u2019t have the number. Phyllis said she was capable of getting Keemo\u2019s number. Jack blurted out that Keemo had gone no-contact with him. He hadn\u2019t talked to his son in years. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Traci was confused, because she recalled Jack saying he talked with Keemo recently. Jack admitted he lied. Traci remembered that Keemo had been angry with Jack for hiding Luan\u2019s illness, but as far as Traci knew, father and son reconciled before Keemo left Genoa City. Jack said that Keemo had reconciled with him out of respect for Luan, but after he left Genoa City, he said he neither wanted nor needed Jack in his life. The last time Jack reached out, Keemo said that he was done with Jack. Traci was sorry. Jack was too. He felt bad he\u2019d lied, but even saying the words that his son wanted nothing to do with him hurt more than words could say. Traci suggested that Keemo had a change of heart, and he was reaching out with these texts. Phyllis thought that made sense \u2013 maybe Keemo was being cryptic because he was embarrassed about the way he\u2019d acted. Jack didn\u2019t think that was it, and he didn\u2019t want to reopen the wound. He abruptly left.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Phyllis and Traci wanted to help Jack. Traci thought they could only wait and see how Jack wanted to proceed. She wished Jack said something earlier, so they could\u2019ve tried to help. Phyllis didn\u2019t understand why Keemo pushed Jack away \u2013 Jack had the biggest heart, and family was important to him. Traci suggested Keemo didn\u2019t want to be part of the Abbott family, which was too bad because everyone did everything they could to welcome him. Phyllis said Jack told her a few things about Keemo, but she didn\u2019t know anything about his relationship with the rest of the Abbotts. Traci said Keemo was wary at first, understandably so \u2013 he was a young man who suddenly found out about all these new relatives. Phyllis said the Abbotts of Jabot Cosmetics, and the family breakfasts could be intimidating. Traci said Keemo warmed up as Luan got close to Jack. Keemo even worked at Jabot for awhile. Phyllis said Keemo probably felt like he hit the jackpot as Jack\u2019s son. Traci thought that at the time, but as soon as Luan died, Keemo distanced himself from his paternal family. Traci had thought it was the grief, but now they knew something else was going on. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Phyllis said that if these texts were a cruel prank, she would hunt this person down and make their life miserable. Traci had no doubt. She knew there wasn\u2019t much Phyllis wouldn\u2019t do to protect Jack. Traci remembered what a huge part of Jack\u2019s life Luan was. Watching him lose her was devastating. Traci always thought Luan was the most significant love of Jack\u2019s life. Phyllis looked stung. Phyllis said Jack didn\u2019t tell her much about Luan. Traci said it was too painful for him to talk about. Traci shared some of the history. Jack and Luan got together when they were young. Fate tore them apart, and by some miracle, they found each other again, decades later. Jack learned that they shared a son, a son who hadn\u2019t been raised by either parent. Phyllis said that was another son that Jack was deprived of raising from birth. Traci continued \u2013 Luan found out she had a terminal illness, and her reunion with Jack and their happiness was short lived. Traci said Jack found a way to go on, somehow. Clearly referencing Phyllis, Traci smiled and added that Jack found an even more intense love later on. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">It bothered Traci that Jack had never been able to make peace with Keemo. Keemo lost his mother just after finding her again, then he turned his back on his father. She wanted to know what was going through Keemo\u2019s mind. Phyllis said Traci was lovely, and she empathized with everyone involved, but Phyllis only cared about the people she was close to. Phyllis said Jack lost Keemo and Luan, and a lesser man would\u2019ve cracked. Phyllis vowed to find out who was sending those texts. She conspiratorially shared that she had resources at her disposal for things like this. Traci thought they should keep the investigation on hold for the moment, because Jack might not want to know who was sending the texts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nate was leaving Society as Jack arrived. They said hello as they passed by each other. Jack took a seat at the bar near Victor. Victor saw that something was the matter with Jack and asked about it. Jack wondered if he was that transparent. Victor was about to leave. Jack offered to buy Victor a drink. Victor said it was a miracle. He sat back down and ordered a tequila. Jack ordered a scotch. Victor thought Jack\u2019s quiet demeanor was unusual. Jack asked if Victor ever had regrets. Victor thought only sociopaths had no regrets. Victor assumed Jack regretted the feuds he and Victor had. Jack didn\u2019t feel remorse about any of that. \u201cNot even when you watched me die on the office floor?,\u201d Victor asked. \u201cEh, I knew you were gonna be okay,\u201d Jack replied. Victor laughed. Jack thought Victor had done worse to him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"> Jack said that their feuds were about business, but this was closer to home. Jack said it was about being a father. He asked if Victor ever looked back and wondered whether the mistakes he made in the past could be fixed. Victor said fatherhood was fraught with opportunities to fail. If he made the wrong decisions, so be it \u2013 his kids were mature enough to look beyond them. Victor admitted he\u2019d made mistakes, some that he thought were irreconcilable, but regrets were only good if they spurred you to new action. Jack thought that was a good point. Victor wondered why Jack was concerned about being a good father. Victor thought Jack was an excellent father who\u2019d raised Kyle well under difficult circumstances, and Kyle had turned into a wonderful man. Jack said Kyle was everything he could want in son. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">\u201cKyle is not the problem,\u201d Jack stated. Victor asked what the problem was. Jack said the past snuck up on him today and stabbed him in the chest. Victor said he and Jack were men of action, and sometimes those actions had a tendency to come back to haunt you. Jack supposed that was true. \u201cI don\u2019t regret anything, really. It\u2019s how you handle it. That is what counts,\u201d Victor said. Jack said thanks. Jack sought Victor\u2019s counseling because Victor had more experience with this. Victor didn\u2019t like to think about his childhood, because it was awful. He taught himself to look forward, not backward because what good did looking backward do? However, as much as people liked to be done with some parts of their past, their past was never done with them, Victor concluded.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Jack returned to the hotel. Phyllis said Traci had to leave, but she asked Phyllis to pass along the message that Traci was there if Jack wanted to talk. Jack said Traci was always there for him, and lately Phyllis had been too. Jack thanked Phyllis for trying to help him solve the puzzle. Phyllis wished Jack would\u2019ve told her about Keemo cutting him out before. He wished he\u2019d told her too. Jack had decided that he needed to find out who was trying to get him to come to LA. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Amanda was very worried about Dominic after his complicated medical procedure, and she didn\u2019t understand how everyone else was so calm. Chance admitted he was a wreck inside, and his calm exterior was for Abby. Abby was doing the same for Chance. Amanda was moved by Abby and Chance\u2019s decision to invite her and Devon into their home. Amanda assured the three others that there would be other events in Dom\u2019s life that they\u2019d get to share together \u2013 birthdays, holidays, ball game. She was humbled and touched by the bond Dom\u2019s parents shared, and she was proud to know the three of them. Abby thought that was a beautiful sentiment. Amanda said takeout was on her. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Abby asked for extra fortune cookies, and Amanda questioned that. Devon said that Abby liked to keep opening the cookies until she got the fortune she liked. Abby asked if they could stop talking about the bone marrow transplant. She wanted a distraction. Amanda said she and Imani would be working for Chancellor Industries. Chance welcomed her to the family company. Amanda asked if he ever thought about joining up, and he said the corporate life wasn&#8217;t for him. He liked traveling the world and fighting the good fight. Abby called him a hero, and he didn\u2019t agree. Devon was happy Chance chose that path, because he went after Colin when he stole Devon\u2019s money. Devon knew Chance had protected a lot of people. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Devon said he and Lily were teaming their companies to produce socially relevant podcasts. Abby thought Neil would be proud. Chance thought Katherine would approve too. Amanda wished she\u2019d gotten to meet these people who were big parts of their lives. Abby was about to share a Katherine story, when Dom started crying. Devon and Abby rushed upstairs. Time passed, and Chance wondered if he should go upstairs, but he figured Abby and Devon had it handled. Amanda said that they\u2019d come to them if they needed them. Amanda hoped Chance knew Devon wasn\u2019t trying to usurp Chance\u2019s role in Dom\u2019s life. Chance knew that. Chance said it was uncharted territory, but if they lead with love, they\u2019d find a way. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Abby and Devon came downstairs. Dom had just needed a fresh diaper. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nate arrived at Devon\u2019s request. Abby thanked Nate for the way he expedited things at the hospital. Nate asked how Devon was. He was just a little sore. Nate advised everyone rest. He went upstairs to see Dom and the nurse. Abby was sorry she never checked on Devon. He said he was fine \u2013 he just did the easy part. Abby didn\u2019t want Devon to downplay what he\u2019d done for Dom. She said they owed him, but he said he was happy to help. Abby and Amanda went to the kitchen. Chance thanked Devon too. \u201cYou did it again. You saved Dominic when I couldn\u2019t,\u201d Chance said. Devon didn\u2019t think he deserved that much credit. The only reason Devon was able to give his bone marrow was simple biology. Chance didn\u2019t think Devon should downplay what he did for their son. Devon said he\u2019d always do anything Dom needed, and that didn\u2019t diminish Chance\u2019s role as the father. Chance got it intellectually, but emotionally, it was different. It was hard for Chance to see the way Devon instantly ran to Dom when he cried. Chance didn\u2019t have that instinct, and he wasn\u2019t sure he never would. Devon said Dom wasn\u2019t even one year old, so there was plenty of time for Chance to gain that instinct. Devon didn\u2019t think it was all about biology. Devon was a teen when he met Neil, and Neil became the center of Devon\u2019s world. Devon knew Chance loved Dom and that the rest would follow. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Everyone returned to the living room. The baby was fine, according to Nate. Nate saw the fortune cookies and was interested in having some of the leftovers. The dish he asked about happened to be the one that Devon had set aside for breakfast in the morning, but he let his cousin have the rest of it. Devon and Abby\u2019s fortune cookie messages seemed tailored to the situation with Dominic, and both fortunes predicted positive things ahead. They smiled. Later, they all headed up to the bedrooms to sleep, but apparently they weren\u2019t able to drift off, because one by one, they all came back downstairs. Abby was first, then Devon, with Chance and Amanda coming shortly afterward. <\/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\/2021\/12\/30\/daytime-soap-updates\/\">Back to the Main Daytime 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 After running into each other at Society, Nate accepted Victor\u2019s offer to sit down for a drink.
