The Young And The Restless Spoilers: Nikki Deceives Talia, Investigative Reporter Blindsided

The Young and the Restless spoilers reveal that Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott) recruits Talia Morgan (Natalie Morales) in her quest to expose Diane Jenkins (Susan Walters). However, the reporter might be looking into the high-profile death of Ashland Locke (formerly played by Robert Newman). So, how does Nikki redirect Talia to focus on Diane?

Y&R spoilers reveal that Nikki and Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) are determined to get rid of Diane. Ashley Abbott (Eileen Davidson) was also part of the alliance but suddenly had to go out of town on business. While Phyllis tries to sabotage Diane’s job at Marchetti, Nikki could find her own way to take action.

Y&R Spoilers – Talia Morales’ Story

Nikki and Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) are occupied trying to get Chance Chancellor (Conner Floyd) to close the case on Ashland’s death. Chance doesn’t seem willing to do that, though. Nikki even spoke to Abby Newman-Abbott-Chancellor (Melissa Ordway) about the situation.

While Abby’s loyalty will be tested, she can’t force Chance to close the case. After all, Chance is determined to honor Rey Rosales (formerly played by Jordi Vilasuso). Plus, Chance is a straight shooter when it comes to his career.

Chance and Kevin Fisher (Greg Rikaart) recently discussed the case. It was specifically mentioned how Ashland is a high-profile case. So, that means the longer it takes to close this “accident” case, the more suspicious the public might get. That could lead to Talia coming to Genoa City to get the story.

The Young And The Restless Spoilers – Getting Focus Off Ashland Locke

The Young and the Restless spoilers reveal that Nikki could find out that an investigative reporter is snooping around. Not wanting her family to deal with another complication due to Ashland’s death, Nikki could manipulate Talia. Nikki might tell Talia that nobody cares about Ashland’s death but everyone is focused on Diane.

At first, Talia might not care about a nobody named Diane. However, when Nikki mentions her ties to the Abbott family and Marchetti, Talia could sense a scandal. That’s exactly what Nikki will want. Instead of Nikki having to dig up dirt, she could let Talia do all the work for her.

Y&R Spoilers – Diane Jenkins’ Secrets

Nikki might even use Diane getting Ashland arrested right before his death as a way to tempt Talia to look into the resurrected Genoa City resident. Talia might wonder if Diane was connected to Ashland’s death. So, Talia could focus on Diane, which could lead to some juicy secrets being exposed.

Diane is a smart cookie and extremely manipulative, though. Will Nikki’s plan work or could Diane blindside everyone by playing Talia?
