00:00THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS SPOILERS
00:13Jack Abbott sat alone in his dimly lit office at the Abbott Mansion, the weight of the world
00:17pressing heavily on his shoulders. The soft glow of the desk lamp cast long shadows, mirroring
00:23the doubts that had begun to creep into his mind. For weeks now, a nagging question had
00:29been gnawing at him, whose child is Kyle really? Diane Jenkins, Kyle's mother, had always
00:34been evasive whenever the topic arose, her eyes flickering with a hint of something unspoken.
00:40Jack had tried to dismiss his suspicions, chalking them up to stress or paranoia. But
00:46the more he observed Diane's behavior, the sidelong glances, the abrupt changes of subject,
00:51the more convinced he became that she was hiding something significant. With no one
00:55else to confide in and feeling increasingly isolated, Jack decided to take matters into
01:00his own hands. He resolved to secretly conduct a DNA test to confirm whether Kyle was truly
01:06his son. Late one evening, under the pretense of needing a document from Kyle's room, Jack
01:12obtained a sample of his son's hair. He sent it off along with his own to a private laboratory,
01:17using an alias to avoid any leaks or misunderstandings. The days that followed were agonizing. Each
01:25ring of the phone, each delivery at the door, sent his heart racing. When the envelope finally
01:30arrived, Jack hesitated before opening it, his hands trembling. As he unfolded the paper
01:36and read the results, his world shattered. The words were clear and undeniable, probability
01:42of paternity, 0%. Jack sank into his chair, the room spinning around him. Memories flooded
01:49his mind, the first time he held Kyle as a baby, their fishing trips, the heart to
01:54heart talks. It was inconceivable that the boy he had raised as his own for over thirty
01:59years was not his biological son. This wasn't the first time Jack had faced such a revelation.
02:06Years ago, he had experienced the same gut-wrenching disbelief upon learning that he was not the
02:11biological son of his mother, Dina Mergeron. That discovery had shaken him to his core,
02:17but he had managed to rebuild his identity and his relationships. But now, facing the
02:22possibility of losing his son in the same way, the pain was almost unbearable.
02:27Questions swirled in his mind. Who was Kyle's real father? Did Diane know all along? Had
02:34their entire relationship been built on a lie? Jack knew he needed answers, but confronting
02:40Diane without evidence would only lead to more evasion. He decided to approach her carefully,
02:46hoping to find the truth without causing further damage.
02:50The next evening, Jack invited Diane over to the mansion under the guise of discussing
02:54family matters. As they sat in the living room, the tension was palpable.
02:59Diane, Jack began cautiously, I've been thinking a lot about our past and about Kyle. There
03:05are some things I need to understand.
03:08Diane shifted uncomfortably.
03:11What do you mean, Jack? Is something bothering you?
03:15He looked directly into her eyes. I can't shake the feeling that there's something you're
03:20not telling me about Kyle's paternity. Her gaze faltered. Jack, we've been over this.
03:28Kyle is your son. Is he?
03:31Jack pressed, pulling the DNA test results from his pocket and placing them on the coffee
03:35table. Because this says otherwise. Diane's face went pale. She stared at the document,
03:43her eyes wide with shock.
03:45You? You had a DNA test done?
03:49I had to know the truth, Jack replied firmly. Why didn't you tell me? Tears welled up in
03:55her eyes.
03:57I was scared, Jack. I didn't know how to tell you.
04:01I thought. I thought it wouldn't matter.
04:05Wouldn't matter? Jack echoed incredulously. You let me believe he was my son for over
04:11thirty years. I didn't want to lose you, she whispered. You were the best thing that
04:17ever happened to me. To us.
04:20Jack stood up, running a hand through his hair in frustration. Who is his real father?
04:27Diane hesitated, then finally admitted, it's Victor Newman. Jack felt as though the heir
04:32had been knocked out of him. Victor Newman, his longtime rival and nemesis. The man who
04:38had been a thorn in his side both personally and professionally for decades. The revelation
04:44was almost too much to bear.
04:46You expect me to believe that you had a child with Victor and kept it from both of us? Jack
04:52asked, his voice tinged with disbelief and anger.
04:55Diane nodded slowly. It was a complicated time. I was involved with both of you. When
05:02I found out I was pregnant, I chose to believe he was yours. It was easier that way.
05:09Easier for whom? Jack demanded. Certainly not for Kyle or for me. You robbed us of the
05:17truth. I'm sorry, she pleaded. I never meant to hurt you.
05:23Jack turned away, his thoughts racing. The implications of this revelation were staggering.
05:29Not only had he been deceived about his own son, but now Victor Newman was unwittingly
05:33part of this twisted family saga.
05:36Does Kyle know? he asked suddenly.
05:38No, Diane replied.
05:41I couldn't bring myself to tell him.
