Victoria said she planned to grow Newman and make it more powerful. She had her eye on five or ten acquisitions. Nikki looked concerned, and Victoria assured her she was thinking about smaller acquisitions, not something the size of the Newman Locke merger. Nikki saw the logic, but she was concerned about the timing. Nikki thought that Victoria was going at a 100 mph instead of processing things, like the closure of the investigation into Ashland\u2019s death. Victoria said the company lost opportunities because she had to focus on Ashland, and that ended today. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nick went to Sally\u2019s office and told her they closed the case on Ashland\u2019s death. Sally said the Newmans must be relieved. Sally was glad Newman Media wouldn\u2019t have to navigate the moral minefield between what they owed the public and what was best to keep quiet for the good of the parent corporation. She knew he\u2019d been worried about the impending media firestorm. He was glad he was wrong about that, and he appreciated her discretion and understanding. He said someone with fewer scruples could\u2019ve exploited this. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Sally warned Nick that Adam approached her more than once fishing for information on Ashland\u2019s death and Chance\u2019s investigation. Nick asked how Sally responded. She said she told him she didn\u2019t know anything. Nick said thanks. Sally said she didn\u2019t do it for Nick, she did it because she was disgusted Adam tried to play on her feelings and tried to make her complicit in whatever move he was planning against Victor. He was sorry Adam put her through that, but he wasn\u2019t surprised, since everyone who got involved with Adam got a rude awakening. Sally said Chloe had constantly warned her about Adam\u2019s past. Nick had to go to his office for the video conference. Sally said he wouldn\u2019t make it in time, so she suggested he stay and watch it with her. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victoria started the conference, and she introduced Nick, who spoke glowingly about Victoria, the company and the division heads, from Sally\u2019s office. Victoria stated that the company faced some challenges, but they were strong and resilient and ready to reap the rewards of their hard work. Sally played a role in the meeting \u2013 she\u2019d be collaborating with another division head. The conference was a success, and Victoria ended the call. Nikki said Victoria was right about this video conference, and she was totally in her element.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Sally told Nick that Victoria was so poised and polished. Nick said she was a lot like Victor \u2013 her kids were her priority, but she was laser focused when it came to business. Sally wasn\u2019t sure she could soldier on like that after breaking up with a lying bastard who suddenly died. Nick said Victoria was extremely resilient, and sometimes Nikki had to push her to take care of herself instead of just focusing on the business. Sally felt bad because she believed Adam when he painted Victoria as a spoiled pampered princess. She was embarrassed. Nick said Adam had a way to getting people to share his distorted view. Sally said it was clear after that call that Victoria wasn\u2019t a princess \u2013 she was a warrior, a leader, and it inspired Sally to want to make Newman Media a success. Nick had no doubt Sally would, and he was glad she was on their team. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">At the ranch, Victor commended Chance for closing the investigation into Ashland\u2019s death. Chance said it wasn\u2019t necessary. He did this to avoid putting Victoria through more turmoil, and because he thought Nick acted in self defense. However, he didn\u2019t condone what Victor did. He said filing a false police report and obstruction of justice were crimes. He conceded that there were extenuating circumstances this time, but Victor couldn\u2019t act outside the law with impunity. \u201cThe next time you cross the line I will be there, and I will make sure you are held accountable,\u201d Chance stated. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victor thought Chance should\u2019ve issued that warning to Ashland while he was alive. Chance said they arrested Ashland for violating the restraining order, but his behavior didn\u2019t change. Victor thought Ashland got what he deserved, but Chance felt that the end didn\u2019t justify the means. It bothered Chance that Victor didn\u2019t think he did anything wrong. Victor said he protected his family, and he\u2019d do so again. However, he understood the conflict Chance felt. Victor promised he wouldn\u2019t cause that kind of conflict again. \u201cI\u2019m not worried about you, Victor. I am worried about the rest of our family. Abby, Nick, Victoria, Nikki. Even Adam. Everyone adores you,\u201d Chance said. He was sure they\u2019d all be crushed if Victor was arrested. Victor said he\u2019d been in jail before. Chance knew, and Abby had told him how tough that was for the family. Chance stated that Victor had more grandchildren now, and they looked up to him. Chance looked up to Victor too. He advised Victor to think about them. Victor snapped that he thought about them all the time. Chance said he wouldn\u2019t cover for Victor again. Victor gave Chance a terse goodbye and asked him to show himself out. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nick tracked Victoria down at the park and asked if she was avoiding the office. She kind of was, because she didn\u2019t want to have to field questions about Ashland. He said if Sally was any indication, the department heads were willing to follow Victoria into battle. She showed him a list of all the companies she wanted to acquire. He was surprised she wanted all of them. He thought they were biting off more than they could chew. She saw his perspective, but she thought this was the time to be bold. He was concerned about the finances. She\u2019d worked it out already. He didn\u2019t think there was anything wrong with slowing it down and getting a feel for he landscape. He felt something was going on. She said she felt extremely confident in her position because she knew he\u2019d always have her back after what happened that night. She thought she might have been killed if he didn\u2019t show up. He didn&#8217;t want her thinking that way, but she said it was true \u2013 he saved her. She thought he was the best brother and colleague anyone could ask for. She had this idea that there was nothing they couldn\u2019t accomplish together, and she intended to put that theory to the test. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Nikki told Victor that Victoria put to rest any concerns the department heads may have had about her ability to lead. She\u2019d mapped out a ten year plan. Victor knew. He was on the call, but he didn\u2019t put his camera on. Nikki asked what Victor thought. He said Victoria was wonderful, and he couldn\u2019t have been happier with what she said. He\u2019d been afraid Ashland shattered Victoria\u2019s confidence, but it was clear she\u2019d fully recovered. Nikki said these were aggressive moves, much like Victor might make. She thought Victoria was trying to prove that Ashland couldn\u2019t defeat her and no one would. Victor said there was nothing wrong with that. He said he\u2019d do the exact same thing Victoria was doing. He couldn\u2019t be prouder. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Victor liked the way Victoria, Nikki and Nick worked together in the conference, like a well oiled machine. He felt that Victoria unified the Newman family. Nikki was thrilled to be working with Victoria and Nick. She was glad Ashland didn\u2019t succeed in driving a wedge between all of them. Victor lamented where things stood with Adam. Nikki was sorry, for Victor\u2019s sake, that Victoria and Adam didn\u2019t reconcile. Victor said it was a problem he tried hard to solve for several years. He said Adam still held a grudge against Victor because Adam had been raised on a farm in Kansas without a father. Victor said it wasn\u2019t his fault. He\u2019d wanted to raise Adam in Genoa City, but Adam\u2019s mother didn\u2019t want that. Victor shifted gears and said they\u2019d celebrate Victoria. \u201cThe Newmans are back,\u201d he crowed. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">At the park, Adam predicted that Kevin was going to get blamed for a negligent investigation and a sloppy cover up. Kevin didn\u2019t buy it. Adam said he was just trying to help Kevin get clarity. Kevin said he didn\u2019t need clarity. Adam said it wasn\u2019t like the old days when Michael was the DA and could get Kevin out of jams. Kevin said even if there was a cover up, he wouldn\u2019t be responsible, because he wasn\u2019t a cop. Adam warned Kevin that Victor wasn\u2019t going to protect him. Kevin theorized that Adam was looking for payback after Victor removed him as CEO. Kevin refused to help Adam. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Adam predicted Kevin would need an expensive lawyer. Kevin said that had never been a problem for him. Adam noted that Michael worked for Victor, which was a conflict of interest, so he wouldn\u2019t be able to come to Kevin\u2019s rescue this time. Kevin said that Adam wasn\u2019t going to scare him. Kevin said there was no cover up \u2013 Chance went by the book, as always. He told Adam to let this go. Kevin left. Adam called someone and said he had a job for them. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">At the rooftop bar, Chloe asserted that Chelsea was falling for Billy. Chelsea said Chloe was overreacting, just like she did about Rey. Chloe said she saw Chelsea interacting with Rey, and she knew how hard Chelsea took his death. Chelsea was adamant that Rey was just a friend, and she got defensive about it. Chloe apologized and said she was just worried when she saw Chelsea talking to Billy, and she was trying to be a good friend. Chelsea asked if a good friend would accuse her of trying to break up Rey\u2019s marriage. Chloe clarified that she never said Chelsea was trying to break up the marriage. Chloe also wasn\u2019t judging, she just saw a spark between Chelsea and the wonderful, forgiving and super-hot Rey. Chelsea smiled. Chloe said Rey was Chelsea\u2019s knight in shining armor, and they spent all that time in Minnesota, so it was only natural for her to develop feelings for him. Chloe said Chelsea was on the rebound, and the Evil One was finally out of her life, and now that Rey was gone, she was lonely. Chelsea was fed up with Chloe calling her lonely, on the rebound, desperate and needy. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Chloe said Chelsea was pulling her words out of context. Chelsea said she was capable of making her own decisions \u2013 Billy was a friend and colleague. Chloe added that Billy was an ex and Johnny\u2019s father, and it was easy for the lines to get blurred. Chloe knew from experience that Billy turned on the Abbott charm, and made you lose perspective. Chloe said Billy could make you feel special without being trying. Chelsea was offended Chloe was implying she was desperate. Chloe explained that she wasn\u2019t calling Chelsea desperate, but vulnerable. Chloe thought Chelsea needed a sane, objective point of view to keep her from jumping off the edge. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Chelsea was pretty sure Chloe just called her crazy. Chelsea acknowledged she had a history of losing touch with reality, but she said Chloe did too. Chelsea said she didn\u2019t throw Chloe\u2019s mental struggles in her face every other day. \u201cJust let me live my life, please!,\u201d Chelsea snapped. Adam was walking in, and he saw Chelsea. Chloe tried to change the subject, but Chelsea wouldn\u2019t allow it. Chelsea said she was an adult who was in control of her emotions, and she didn\u2019t need a baby sitter. Chelsea was sorry \u2013 she didn\u2019t mean to jump down Chloe\u2019s throat, but she didn\u2019t appreciate the insinuation. Chloe blamed herself for her imagination running away with her. Chloe had to leave, and she suggested they talk when things cooled off. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">After Chloe left, Adam walked up to Chelsea and commented that her exchange with Chloe looked intense. Chelsea said good friends argued sometimes, not that Adam would know. He said she was being defensive. She asked how long he\u2019d spied on her, and she took another shot at him about not having a job. He heard her podcast, and he enjoyed her poking holes in Billy\u2019s over inflated ego. She replied that she had a lot experience dealing with arrogant men. She mentioned that Billy didn\u2019t have time for the podcast anymore. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Adam said Chelsea could do her own podcast. She explained that Billy told her Chancellor Winters was willing to keep her on. Adam thought that sounded great \u2013 someone else would be putting up the money, and she wouldn\u2019t have to deal with Billy anymore. Chelsea thought the podcast was good because of her banter with Billy. She said no one wanted to listen to her drone on and on, not even her. Adam said that he knew how much Chelsea loved the sound of her own voice. She laughed. He told her to get a co-host or bring on a weekly guest. She didn\u2019t think that was a bad idea. She\u2019d felt so inspired by the podcast, and it made her feel less invisible. He understood. He hoped she wasn\u2019t talking like this around Connor, though. She was caught off guard and offended. She asked if he was saying she was an unfit mother if she wasn\u2019t cheery all the time. He didn&#8217;t mean that, but he said Connor was a sensitive kid who picked up on their emotions. Adam tried not to talk to Connor about family issues for the same reason. She grudgingly said she\u2019d put on her game face. Sally walked in and she left when she saw Chelsea and Adam. Adam got a call, and he rushed off. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Chloe went up to Kevin at Crimson Lights. He was on the phone reporting a theft. His car had been broken into, and someone stole his messenger bag, that was a gift from Chloe, and in the bag was his GCPD laptop. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">A guy showed up at Adam\u2019s hotel suite with Kevin\u2019s satchel. He grumbled that Adam should pay him extra for having to steal from someone who worked for the GCPD. Adam took Kevin\u2019s laptop. The thief really liked Kevin\u2019s black leather messenger bag, so Adam let him keep it. Adam smiled triumphantly. <\/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 At Victoria\u2019s, Nikki asked about the agenda for the video conference.
