These intertwining stories will shake the core of several relationships.
Michael Accepts Victor’s Risky Mission
Victor Newman hands Michael Baldwin a risky new assignment. This task isn’t simple—it may demand deception. Michael has played dirty for Victor before. He may have no problem doing it again. But this mission may be darker than usual.
Lauren Baldwin doesn’t like this new job at all. She thinks Michael’s going too far again. At the jazz lounge, she shares her fears with Nikki Newman. Lauren wants Nikki to betray Victor. Lauren pleads with Nikki to get involved. She hopes Nikki will protect Michael from sinking deeper. Nikki feels torn but agrees to help.
Later, Nikki confronts Michael. She demands to know what Victor’s up to. Michael stays quiet at first but Nikki pushes harder. She’s clearly on a mission. Victor may catch wind of Nikki’s betrayal. And let’s be real—he won’t like it one bit.
If Nikki presses Victor, he might brush it off. He’ll act like nothing is wrong. But Nikki won’t be fooled. Lauren has already warned her. She’s beginning to believe Victor’s up to something big. This could tie into Victor’s Jabot scheme. Or it may connect to the twisted Aristotle Dumas mess. Either way, Nikki now has serious doubts about her husband’s motives.
