Lily Seeks Legal Advice
AMP in the post
Y&R’s weekly promo opens with Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) seeking legal advice from Michael Baldwin (Christian LeBlanc).
With Billy Abbott (Jason Thompson) continuing to pose a threat, Lily wants help deciding how best to respond.
Michael urges her to approach Billy immediately and see if she can persuade him to back down.
Whether Lily makes an emotional appeal or offers some kind of deal, Michael believes this may be her final opportunity to prevent their feud from growing even more intense.
Lily frets over what might happen if Billy declares that he intends to fight for Chancellor, and Michael acknowledges that such an outcome would be bad news.

As previously reported, Billy’s secret Chancellor plans could create even more trouble for Lily.
Cane Stands By Lily, Audra And Claire’s Showdown
If Billy refuses to back down, Lily will certainly have a major battle ahead of her.
Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) will stand firmly by Lily’s side, whatever happens, though his efforts to help could make the situation worse if he isn’t careful.
The preview video also shows a tense showdown between Audra and Claire at The Shadow Room.
Claire appears ready to accuse Audra of persuading Holden Novak (last played by Nathan Owens) to end their romance.
Audra will try to leave Claire and her drama behind, but Claire will make it clear that their conversation isn’t over.
As Audra’s growing concerns about Claire getting too close to the truth have already shown, their feud is far from over.

Daniel Intervenes In The Catfight, ‘Vyle’ Breaks Up For Real
When Claire grabs Audra to stop her from leaving, Audra fires back with a warning: she wouldn’t make that move in her shoes.
The two women nearly come to blows in the bar before Daniel Romalotti Jr. (Michael Graziadei) steps between them and urges them to calm down, but their feud is set to escalate in the episodes ahead.
Meanwhile, Victoria confides in Kyle that she finally has a chance to rebuild her relationship with Claire after all these years; unwilling to jeopardize that hard-won opportunity, she insists they end their affair.
“Kyle, seriously. This has to end now,” Victoria says in the weekly promo.
The Young and the Restless spoilers hint that Victoria and Kyle may struggle to keep their distance—so stay tuned to see if they can resist temptation.
Meanwhile, Claire could face an even bigger betrayal if she discovers Victoria and Kyle’s secret romance.
Annemarie’s Take
I have a feeling Claire and Audra’s confrontation is only the beginning! Audra has been playing games for far too long, and Claire certainly doesn’t seem interested in letting her walk away this time.
But the real fireworks could come when Claire discovers what Victoria and Kyle have been doing behind her back. Victoria can insist the affair is over all she wants, but that doesn’t erase what happened. I can’t imagine Claire forgiving either of them easily!
And Lily had better listen to Michael. Billy’s obsession with Chancellor isn’t going away, and I suspect Cane’s involvement could make an already messy situation even worse.
