00:00The Young and the Restless Spoilers Shock
00:13Kyle Abbott had always believed his future was carved in stone.
00:17As the heir to Jabot, the legendary Abbott family business,
00:21he thought his destiny was to carry the family legacy,
00:24just as his father Jack and countless generations before him had done.
00:28But everything was falling apart.
00:30Jabot was on the verge of collapse, and instead of mourning the family empire,
00:35Kyle felt a strange sense of satisfaction watching it crumble.
00:39It was as if something deep within him relished the destruction
00:42of the very company his parents had worked so hard to build.
00:46Jack and Diane could hardly believe their son's reaction.
00:49They had fought so hard to give Kyle the best life,
00:52to raise him as their own, to build a future for him at Jabot.
00:55And yet, here he was, gleeful at the prospect of its demise.
01:00It was the last straw.
01:02For years, they had kept a secret,
01:04a secret that now more than ever had to be told.
01:08Jack and Diane had always known Kyle wasn't their biological son,
01:12but they had buried that truth deep,
01:14wanting to raise him as an Abbott regardless of blood ties.
01:18But Kyle's behavior left them no choice.
01:20It was time to bring him down to Earth,
01:22and the only way to do that was to reveal the truth.
01:25Jack and Diane decided to convene a family meeting, an emergency one.
01:30They gathered the board of Jabot, extended family members,
01:33and even a few key members of the press.
01:36It was a spectacle, and Kyle had no idea what was coming.
01:40As he strode into the boardroom,
01:42his usual self-assured swagger on full display,
01:45he saw the grim faces of his parents
01:47and a tension in the room that sent a chill down his spine.
01:50Thank you all for coming, Jack began,
01:53his voice uncharacteristically grave.
01:55He glanced at Diane, who gave a slight nod,
01:58signaling that she was ready for what they were about to do.
02:01Jack inhaled deeply before continuing.
02:04There's something that Diane and I have kept hidden for a long time,
02:08something that affects the very future of our family and our company,
02:12and it's time the truth comes out.
02:14Kyle furrowed his brow, confused by his father's ominous tone.
02:18He had expected this meeting to be about the company's financial crisis
02:22or a new strategy to save Jabot,
02:24but there was something in Jack's eyes,
02:27something he had never seen before,
02:29a combination of sorrow and resolve that made Kyle uneasy.
02:33Kyle, Jack said, his voice softer now but no less serious,
02:38you are not our biological son.
02:40A stunned silence fell over the room.
02:43Kyle's heart pounded in his chest
02:46for a moment he was sure he had misheard.
02:49What? he whispered, his voice hoarse
02:51as the weight of Jack's words began to sink in.
02:54Diane stepped forward, her eyes filled with tears.
02:57Kyle, we love you, we've always loved you,
02:59but the truth is you were adopted, our biological son.
03:02He disappeared when he was just a baby.
03:04We never found him.
03:06Kyle staggered back as if the floor beneath him had suddenly shifted.
03:10This, this can't be happening, he muttered, his voice trembling.
03:14The people in the room stared at him,
03:16their expressions a mixture of shock and pity,
03:19but none of that mattered to Kyle.
03:21What mattered was that his entire identity had just been shattered.
03:25You've always believed that Jabot was your birthright, Jack continued,
03:30his voice growing firmer,
03:32but the truth is it was never yours to inherit.
03:35We raised you as an abbot
03:37because we wanted you to be part of this family, regardless of blood.
03:41But after your recent behavior, your disregard for the company, for this family,
03:46we realized we couldn't keep this from you any longer.
03:50Diane wiped away a tear, her voice shaky as she added,
03:54you've always thought you were entitled to the abbot name,
03:57to everything that comes with it,
03:59but it's time for you to understand that being part of this family
04:02means more than just having a name,
04:04it means responsibility, respect, and loyalty,
04:07and you've shown none of that.
04:09Kyle stood frozen, his mind racing.
04:11Adopted? Not an abbot?
04:14He could barely comprehend what was happening.
04:16Everything he had ever believed about himself, his family, his future,
04:20everything was a lie.
04:22Jack's voice cut through his thoughts.
04:24As of today, Kyle, you are no longer recognized as an abbot,
04:28you will not inherit Jabot, and you will no longer carry the abbot name.
04:32Kyle's mouth went dry.
04:34You're disowning me?
04:36He choked out.
04:37Diane stepped forward, her face full of regret.
04:40We didn't want it to come to this, Kyle.
04:42But you forced our hand, we gave you everything,
04:45and in return, you've tried to tear this family apart.
04:48Kyle's world spun out of control.
04:50Disowned? No longer an abbot?
04:53He felt like he was standing on the edge of a cliff,
04:55about to fall into an abyss.
04:57He thought of the headlines that would flood the media,
05:00the shame that would follow him everywhere.
05:02His mind raced to Victor Newman,
05:04his other powerful ally in Genoa City.
05:07Would Victor cast him aside now, too?
05:10Without the abbot name, without Jabot, what would he be?
05:14Who would he be?
05:16The room began to blur as Kyle stumbled out,
05:18leaving behind the shocked whispers of the board members and reporters.
05:22His phone buzzed relentlessly,
05:24as news outlets were already spreading the story.
05:26Kyle Abbott, not an abbot after all.
05:29It was all over the Internet, on every social media platform,
05:32on every major news site.
05:34His face, his name, no, not his name, plastered everywhere.
05:38Kyle's legs moved on autopilot,
05:41carrying him toward the only place that made sense,
05:43the house he grew up in.
05:45He had to hear it from Jack and Diane themselves,
05:47away from the boardroom, away from the press.
05:50This couldn't be real. It couldn't be true.
05:53He burst through the front door of the Abbott mansion,
05:56his heart pounding in his chest.
05:58Mom! Dad! he yelled, his voice frantic.
06:00Jack and Diane appeared in the doorway of the living room,
06:03their faces a mixture of sorrow and determination.
06:06Kyle stared at them, desperate for some explanation,
06:09for something that would make this nightmare end.
06:11Is it true? he demanded, his voice breaking.
06:15Is everything you said in that meeting, is it true?
06:18Am I really not your son?
06:20Jack stepped forward, his face filled with regret.
06:23It's true, Kyle, he said softly.
06:26We adopted you, after we lost our biological son.
06:29We wanted to give you a life, a family,
06:32and we've always loved you as our own.
06:34But you're not mine, Kyle, Diane added, her voice quivering.
06:38We wanted to raise you as if you were our own flesh and blood.
06:41But we couldn't continue living this lie.
06:44Kyle's mind reeled.
06:46His whole life, he had believed he was an Abbott,
06:49that Jabut was his legacy, his birthright.
06:51But now, everything was different.
06:53He wasn't an Abbott, he wasn't Jack's son, he was nothing.
06:57He looked at his parents, no, his adoptive parents,
07:00tears welling in his eyes.
07:02What am I supposed to do now? he whispered.
07:05Who am I supposed to be if I'm not an Abbott?
07:08Jack stepped closer, placing a hand on Kyle's shoulder.
07:11That's something you'll have to figure out on your own.
07:14But remember this, you were always loved, and you still are.
07:18Kyle's heart ached with the weight of Jack's words,
07:21but it did little to ease the deep sense of betrayal coursing through him.
07:25He had been living a lie his entire life,
07:28and now he was left to pick up the pieces.
07:31As Kyle stood there, staring at the people he once called family,
07:35he realized he was truly alone.
07:37Without the Abbott name, without Jabut,
07:40he had no idea who he was anymore or where he belonged.
07:51.
