Recently on The Young and the Restless, Victor Newman has been orchestrating a heartbreaking scenario involving Kyle Abbott and Claire. Just yesterday, Victor was cautioning Claire to be wary of Kyle, fearing she’d be mistreated as she was by her Aunt Jordan. Now, Victor has taken it a step further by manipulating the situation to drive a wedge between Kyle and his father, Jack.
Victor is using his resources to fund Gade’s campaign against Jabot, placing Kyle in charge of the company to exacerbate the rift with Jack. But Victor’s machinations don’t stop there. He’s setting the stage for Kyle and Claire’s wedding, intentionally excluding Jack to deepen the estrangement. Victor’s goal is to ensure that the gap between father and son becomes unbridgeable.
Victor is also playing the role of Kyle’s biggest cheerleader, inflating his ego with constant praise and rewards, making Kyle view him as the father figure he’s always desired. Meanwhile, Victor subtly fills Claire’s head with negative perceptions of Jack, comparing him to the dangerous Jordan. Claire’s eventual support for Kyle’s grievances against Jack only fuels the division.
Victor’s ultimate plan includes Kyle and Claire’s wedding without Jack’s presence, further isolating Kyle from his family. Despite Diane’s pleas to include Jack, Kyle remains resolute in his decision, driven by Victor’s manipulative influence. Victor’s endgame is to have Kyle and Claire married while Jack is left devastated, both personally and professionally, with Jabot’s future under threat.
Victor’s schemes also involve shifting relationships, moving Abby away from Chance and toward Devon, and redirecting Kyle and Claire’s paths. While Summer may be upset about Victor’s manipulations, Victor’s focus remains on the pain he’s inflicting on Jack and the potential downfall of John Abbott’s legacy.
