Billy Abbott may have convinced his family that he has moved past his vendetta against Victor Newman,
but in reality, he is still deep in the game—and this time, he’s not alone. Behind closed doors,
Billy is working with a secret partner, someone just as determined to bring Victor down. But who could it be?
Several names come to mind, each with their own motives for revenge. One strong possibility is Tucker McCall, a man known for playing the long game and thriving in chaos. Tucker has his own reasons to see Victor fall, particularly after the way Victor treated Lily Winters. Given that Lily is close to Devon Hamilton, Tucker might see taking down Victor as a way to regain favor with his son. Billy and Tucker have been spotted having discreet meetings, their hushed conversations hinting at a dangerous alliance. But Tucker is a master manipulator—if he is Billy’s partner, can Billy trust him not to double-cross him when the time is right?
Another suspect is Diane Jenkins. Victor’s meddling in Kyle Abbott’s life has left Diane furious, and she has never been one to let a grudge go. She may have promised Jack she would turn over a new leaf, but Diane is a strategist at heart, capable of deception and long-term plotting. A whispered conversation between her and Billy weeks ago hinted at something more than just casual grievances. If Diane is working alongside Billy, she may be pulling the strings from the shadows, ensuring their plan unfolds with precision. But if Jack discovers that his wife and brother have secretly joined forces, the fallout could be explosive.
Then there’s Ashley Abbott. Ashley has been keeping a low profile since her recovery in Paris, but she has plenty of unfinished business with Victor. Their history runs deep, from bitter breakups to corporate warfare. Victor has targeted the Abbott family, their legacy, and their business for years—Ashley might see aligning with Billy as a necessary move to protect her family. Billy, blinded by his hatred for Victor, could see Ashley as a natural ally in his quest for revenge. But Ashley is methodical, and she knows Victor better than most. If she’s involved, she could be the mastermind behind the whole scheme, ensuring every step is calculated to hit Victor where it hurts most.
Whoever Billy’s secret partner is, their alliance is built on a shared hatred for Victor—but secrets like this never stay hidden for long. Jack is trusting Billy with millions of dollars to build Abbott Communications, believing that his younger brother has finally put his reckless past behind him. If Jack learns that Billy is still scheming in the shadows, the family could be torn apart once again. Sally Spectra and Summer Newman are also being kept in the dark, but it’s only a matter of time before the truth emerges.
Billy has always struggled between doing the right thing and giving in to his impulsive nature. If history is any indication, his latest revenge plot is bound to spiral out of control. Will he finally succeed in taking Victor down, or will he once again be his own worst enemy? The answers are coming soon, and the consequences will be dire.
