She noticed he was holding an envelope like it was gold, or a bomb. He said these were the papers sent by Michael about Ashland. She said it was definitely a bomb, then. He thought Victoria deserved to see them. Nikki wanted Victor to tread carefully, so he didn\u2019t alienate their daughter further. He didn\u2019t want to do this, but Ashland forced his hand. He said Victoria needed to know what kind of man she married. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victor went to Victoria\u2019s office and told her they needed to talk. Unless Victor was here to apologize and take back the disgusting allegations he made about Ashland, Victoria had nothing to say to him. Victor wished he was wrong. He refused to leave until Victoria looked through the folder. She\u2019d seen all she needed to see. She said he was so controlling that he\u2019d even destroy her marriage all because another man had a say in the family business. He didn\u2019t want to hurt her, but he was insistent that Ashland had been lying about his illness. She asked if he really thought he could blackmail Ashland with these outrageous lies and get him to leave her. Victor thought Victoria would rather be angry with him than enraged at Ashland. Victoria couldn\u2019t stand being patronized this way. She told him to leave her office. Victor couldn\u2019t stand by and watch Victoria be deceived any longer. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victoria was so sick of all the men in her life saying they loved her, then hurting her. Victor wasn\u2019t trying to cause Victoria more pain. He was trying to prevent her from suffering. It broke his heart to tell her what he\u2019d learned about Ashland. She said he\u2019d learned lies. He said there was an overwhelming amount of evidence. She challenged him to show her the evidence. She even reached out to Michael, and he never called her back. Victor held up the envelope and said it was here. She asked why he was going through these lengths. He said he was trying to protect her and the company. Victoria revealed that Ashland was the co-CEO now. \u201cWe signed the contracts, so it looks like you\u2019ve lost the game,\u201d she said. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victor had proof of large payments that the doctor received before he disappeared. Victoria said whoever was setting Ashland up paid the doctor to make those statements. Victor had hoped he was wrong about Ashland, and that was why he sent Michael down to investigate. Victor said that Michael found that the payments were made by a shell company owned by Locke Communications. He said Michael sent the papers from Peru before he disappeared. Victoria was startled and asked more about the disappearance. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victor said Michael fell off the face of the earth. He and Michael used to talk two or three times a day, and now \u2013 nothing. Victor said he should\u2019ve been able to find Michael by now. Lauren was worried too. Victor implied that Ashland got to Michael. Victoria thought it was insane to suggest that Ashland harmed Michael. Victor didn\u2019t know Michael had been harmed. Maybe Ashland had Michael locked away, to buy time. Victoria wouldn\u2019t hear of it. She was adamant that her husband was innocent. Victor told Victoria to read the papers, and he said he had copies. He was deeply sorry to be the bearer of such bad news. He loved and adored her, and he only wanted what was best for her. He left. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nikki ran into Ashland at Society. He got up, and she turned around and started toward the door. He asked her to stay and hear him out. Nikki said she didn\u2019t have time. Ashland knew how this must look. He was sure Victor filled Nikki\u2019s head with all kinds of accusations. She said no one planted ideas in her head that she didn\u2019t think deserved to be there. He just wanted to tell her his side of the story, so she could decide for herself. He sensed she wasn\u2019t convinced as Victor by the word of one unscrupulous doctor. She was willing to hear him out. He said they\u2019d been working together for awhile, and she\u2019d seen how profound his love was for Victoria. He thought she must realize he\u2019d never ever mastermind the plot Victor was accusing him of, and he\u2019d never hurt Victoria that way. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nikki didn\u2019t want to believe Ashland was capable of coming up with this plot. However, Victor said there was too much evidence that couldn\u2019t have been fabricated. \u201cAnd yet he\u2019s willing to believe that I fabricated mountains of evidence to somehow fake an illness I don\u2019t have? Do you not see the contradiction?,\u201d he asked. Nikki said someone was lying, and she hoped it was a doctor at the clinic, but it was becoming harder not to think it was Ashland. He asked if she was saying Victor found more of this so-called evidence. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nikki asked what kind of evidence Ashland thought Victor could\u2019ve come up with. Ashland said it didn\u2019t matter. He didn\u2019t want to guess what was going on in Victor\u2019s mind. He just wanted to find a way to get past this. Nikki asked what Ashland expected of her. He said he needed Nikki to be on his side. He said Victor wouldn\u2019t stop until he poisoned Victoria against Ashland. Nikki wanted to know what Ashland thought Victor\u2019s motives were. He didn\u2019t know. He suggested Victor felt threatened by Ashland\u2019s recovery. Nikki said that was baseless \u2013 Victor wasn\u2019t easily threatened, especially by Ashland. She said Victor\u2019s only agenda was protecting Victoria. Ashland said that he only cared about protecting Victoria and their marriage. He asked if she\u2019d ever seen her daughter happier. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nikki said Ashland knew how supportive she and Victor had been of the wedding and the couple\u2019s happiness. She pointed out that they had a beautiful wedding at the Tuscan villa that became a wedding gift. She reminded him of the lengths Victor and his sons went through to protect Ashland\u2019s reputation and company. He was grateful for all of that, so the turnaround seemed so much more puzzling. Nikki said for Ashland to betray them after all that made it more devastating and unforgivable. He said the unforgivable thing for him was the precious time he was losing with Victoria. He said that no one promised him that this treatment was a magical cure. Nikki wanted to know what the doctors said, since Ashland had been vague about his condition. Ashland said he\u2019d only been told his cancer was in remission for the moment, so it was horrible that instead of being able to spend the extra time he had with Victoria working side by side, he was having to fight for the love of his life. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nikki said that if Ashland was being honest, he had to prove it. Ashland said he was working on it. Nikki said that he couldn\u2019t be expected to be taken at his word \u2013 he\u2019d need evidence, and if he could deliver, Victor would apologize.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nikki and Victor met back up at Newman Media. Nikki was concerned Victor and Victoria\u2019s relationship wouldn\u2019t recover. Victor didn\u2019t take the stuff Victoria said personally, because he knew she wasn\u2019t actually angry with him. Victor said that Victoria might not immediately believe the documents, but he was sure she\u2019d come around to his side. He knew it would be traumatic for Victoria to learn the depth of Ashland\u2019s deceit. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Ashland went to Victoria\u2019s office. She closed the door and told him about Victor, the envelope, and Victor\u2019s theories on Michael. She said Victor had records of payments being sent to the Peruvian doctor. They were sent from a very small and obscure radio division, owned by Locke Communications \u2013 one you\u2019d have to look really hard to find. \u201cTell me something, Ashland. Why would a small company that we own, that\u2019s barely on anyone\u2019s radar be sending a steady stream of money to a doctor who is connected with your treatment,\u201d Victoria asked. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">In LA, Jack told Allie that he wanted to talk to her about Hao Nguyen \u2013 his son Keemo. Allie said Hao Nguyen was a common name, and Jack must have the wrong guy. Jack said he was certain he had the right person. She asked what they wanted \u2013 Hao was dead. He said he came here for answers about his son. \u201cLook, Hao couldn\u2019t possibly be your son. He\u2019s my dad, and he never mentioned you,\u201d Allie replied. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Allie said her dad never knew his father &#8211; he was the result of an affair her grandmother had in Vietnam. Jack said her name was Luan. Allie asked if Jack was claiming he was here to track down his son after his death. He gently told her that her father didn\u2019t tell her the whole truth. He explained that he and Luan were Hao\u2019s parents, and Keemo was his given name. Allie said her dad told her that he didn\u2019t know anything about his father growing up. Jack said that was true \u2013 he didn\u2019t know anything about Keemo until his son was a young adult. Allie didn\u2019t believe it, and she wanted proof. Jack pulled out the picture of him and Luan on their wedding day. Allie was stunned. Luan died before Allie was born, but she\u2019d seen other pictures of her grandmother, and she recognized Luan and the younger Jack. \u201cYour father was our best man,\u201d Jack said. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u201c<span style=\"font-size: medium;\">This doesn\u2019t prove anything. If my dad knew who his father was, why didn\u2019t he tell me? Why would he lie to me and my mother like that?,\u201d Allie challenged. She said that the picture just showed Jack married her grandmother, it didn\u2019t mean he was her\u2026 \u201cYou\u2019re grandfather,\u201d Jack said. Allie looked shaken up, and she needed to sit down. Jack showed Allie the paperwork he gave Keemo on the wedding day. It legally and personally acknowledged Jack was Keemo\u2019s father. Allie didn\u2019t understand why her dad hid all this. Jack repeated the whole story about accidentally finding out Luan was sick, and hiding it from Keemo, out of respect for Luan\u2019s wishes. Keemo didn\u2019t get a chance to say goodbye to his mom, and he was devastated and furious with Jack. Jack tried hard to fix it, and he thought he had, but then he started getting bitter emails from Keemo. Keemo cut Jack off and changed his name.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Allie said if this was all true, it was clear that her father wanted nothing to do with Jack, so why was he here? He told her about the mysterious texts. She was upset to hear that Jack had been going through her father\u2019s house and searching through his things. Jack understood how Allie felt, and he\u2019d felt conflicted about that as well. He said he was seeking closure \u2013 his son died, and he wanted to know what kind of man he became. He showed her the letters written by Keemo. Allie snatched them away and asked what gave Jack the right to read those. He told her they were addressed to him. He encouraged her to read them. She unfolded one and burst into tears. She couldn\u2019t bear to read it, so she asked Jack what they said. He said that the letters revealed that Keemo was thinking of reconnecting with him. Jack said Keemo never got the chance, because he died. Allie looked at a letter and sobbed because that was her father\u2019s handwriting, and these were snippets of his thoughts. She was struggling with accepting that her dad was gone. Now she was seeing a side of her dad that she never knew about. Jack asked if Allie had anyone to lean on. Allie\u2019s parents divorced a few years ago, and her mom moved to the east coast, and she hadn\u2019t seen her mom much sense. Her mom did fly out for the funeral, but she left soon after. With a hint of bitterness in her voice, Allie stated her mother said that she\u2019d needed to get back to work. Jack realized he was probably the last person Allie would seek comfort in, but it just killed him that she was all alone. She said she\u2019d be fine. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Phyllis asked if Allie\u2019s mother could know the truth and be the one sending the texts. Allie doubted it. Phyllis implied that Allie might be the texter. Allie was adamant that she\u2019d never even heard of Jack Abbott was before today. Jack believed Allie, but he said someone thought they should meet. Allie had no idea who that person should be. Allie said whoever sent the texts wasted their time. She had grad school and a life to live, and if her father couldn\u2019t bring himself to reconcile with Jack, she had no reason to either. \u201cI think you and your friend should go back to where you came from,\u201d she said. She told them to forget this encounter happened, and she rushed toward the door. Jack called Allie and said he couldn\u2019t do that. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Jack was sorry, but he couldn\u2019t pretend he never met Allie. He knew this was hard for her. What he\u2019d learned was hard for him too. Someone wanted him to come here, and as painful as it had been to find out about all he lost, he was glad he came because he got to meet her. No one knew more than him how hard it was not to be able to go to your father and ask for answers. He hoped, in time, he and Allie could find answers in each other. He knew he was a stranger now, but he hoped they could be more to each other, in time. Allie was sorry, but she wasn\u2019t interested. Jack said Allie had his number, so she could call. She didn\u2019t want to. He asked if he could keep the contents of the box. She took a quick look and said she didn\u2019t want any of it. He picked up the necklace he\u2019d given Luan and tried to give it to Allie. She seemed moved by it, but then she steeled herself and coolly said \u201cno thanks.\u201d Allie was sorry everyone wasted their time. She left. Jack looked devastated, and Phyllis comforted him. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Jack hoped that Allie would come back after she processed things. Phyllis said enough about Allie \u2013 she wanted to talk about Jack. She knew he must be stunned. He said it was quite the surprise, finding a granddaughter. He couldn\u2019t expect Allie to embrace him \u2013 she didn\u2019t know he existed. Phyllis told Jack not to suppress his emotions with her. He didn\u2019t want to dump everything on her. She said that was why she came. He said he was overwhelmed. She suggested that Allie would come around. She said it seemed like Keemo passed his bitter feelings to the next generation. Jack thought Allie was just honoring his father\u2019s wishes. Jack respected that. It seemed like Allie and Keemo were close, and Jack was glad that Keemo had love in his life. Phyllis said that was nice, but she wanted to know how Jack really felt. He said yesterday, he learned his son was thinking about repairing their relationship, today he learned that Keemo had a daughter he never wanted Jack to know. It broke Jack\u2019s heart. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Jack had to focus on the here and now \u2013 and that was Allie, the sweet young woman dealing with the loss of her father on her own. Jack had picked up on the tension Allie showed when she talked about her mother. <\/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 Nikki stopped by Newman Media to invite Victor to lunch, but he said he couldn\u2019t get away.
