Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) talked with Adam after Victoria explained how she defeated Ashland Locke (Robert Newman). Grossman’s character was stewing at Society because he was ousted approximately a week after being appointed Newman Enterprises’ Chief Executive Officer.
Adam told Victor he believed he was not in league with Victoria, and the CEO appointment was not part of a coordinated plan. Yet Adam told Sally that he believes Victor has continually insulted and humiliated him.

Adam arrived in Genoa City, Wisconsin as a young adult in 2008. Chris Engen (Adam) was the SORAS’d (soap opera rapid aging syndrome) replacement for what had been a child character in the years leading toward that point.
Soap-time can be adjusted backward and forwards, as was true in Dark Shadows or the final episode of Guiding Light. There are other shows where time was bent as well.
A Y&R mini-arc retrospective, that was shown in 2020 via flashbacks, revealed that Adam (played by child actor, Dane West) killed a man in defense of his mother. Grossman’s edition of the character blocked that horrific part of his life out, including the protective role Victor played in it in what was an excellent backstory line.

Adam does not value the significance of what his father did for him all those years ago. Instead, he has defaulted to the woe is me, outcast posture that has so often derailed personal progress.
Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) demonstrated a level of understanding he never had before when he and Adam were on the farm in Kansas following the flashback story line. That advanced their relationship beyond nonacceptance to a genuine brotherly bond.
In his mind, Adam feels comfortable harboring grudges. His initial grievance was that Victor abandoned him and Hope Wilson (Signy Coleman) when he was a boy. But Adam knows that was not true, as Hope felt she and her then baby were not suited for the rough GC world.
Y&R Spoilers – Ashland Locke Seeks To Exploit
Will Adam be foolish enough to throw in with the likes of Ashland Locke (Robert Newman)? At first blush, it seems like it.
Ashland intentionally approached Adam at Crimson Lights. His new, clean-shaven appearance was part of a signal. Ashland believes he and Adam share a common enemy in the Newman family and should fight them together.
However, a later scene of rage in Ashland’s hotel room confirms that Newman’s character is unstable. So, viewers should expect Ashland’s anger to scorch Grossman’s character if Adam allows himself to be used.
