Lily Winters’ Mixed Signals

Let’s start off with Cane and Lily. Fans know that Cane made another move and shared a kiss with Lily. The woman kissed him back, which gave him a good sign. However, she will backtrack in tomorrow’s episode.

Lily’s heart might still beat for Cane, but her head keeps screaming not to trust him. Of course, it doesn’t make it any better than Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) keeps hanging around the tycoon.

Jack Abbott’s Loyalty

Fans know that for decades, Jack and Nikki have shared a friendship. They are incredibly loyal to each other despite the feud with Victor Newman (Eric Braeden). Nikki is not happy about Victor targeting Jabot using Newman Media, especially around the holidays.

While Nikki didn’t leave Victor, she isn’t exactly doing nothing. The woman will conspire with Michael Baldwin (Christian LeBlanc).

Diane Jenkins Abbott Fumes

The Young and the Restless spoilers for tomorrow’s episode reveal that Diane has always known about Jack’s loyalty to Nikki. It doesn’t always make sense to Diane, but she’s always accepted it.

Now, Diane will question why Jack insists on being so loyal to Victor’s wife. Diane will think it’s a huge mistake! Of course, Diane is unaware that Michael will be working with Nikki.

Everyone already knows how Victor will react when Michael’s betrayal is exposed. However, could Victor really blow up over Nikki helping him, even if it is for his own good?

Where’s Matt Clark?

Finally, there is the issue of Matt Clark (Roger Howarth). The man has gone missing after Nick Newman’s (Joshua Morrow) crash. If Matt comes after Nick, he won’t be able to defend himself very well with a broken leg!

However, everyone will be concerned about Noah Newman (Lucas Adams) and Sienna Bacall (Tamara Braun). Nikki is right that they all need to stick together.

However, could Matt turn up at Sharon Newman’s (Sharon Case) place while everyone is at the hospital with Nick? Will that be Matt’s opportunity to get revenge?
