Genoa City, a place where power, wealth, and ambition have always ruled the streets, is now trembling under the weight of its most dangerous secret. Behind the walls of the Newman Ranch, where once only triumph and legacy stood, a far more sinister truth is slowly beginning to unravel.

Victor’s Control: The Man Behind the Curtain

Victor Newman has always been a titan in Genoa City, a man whose iron grip on power extended to every corner of the business world. His reputation for ruthlessness has often been his greatest weapon, and his family, though divided, has always been bound to his legacy. But what if the man who built this empire isn’t just a ruthless businessman? What if Victor’s true nature is darker than anyone ever realized?

Victor has always been seen as a man willing to manipulate and control. But the truth goes far beyond simple corporate warfare or familial influence. What no one could have guessed was that Victor’s grip extended to far more than just business—it reached into the shadows, where murder and betrayal lingered.

Carter’s Mysterious Role: A Hitman in the Shadows

Carter has always been a mysterious figure, a man whose past has been clouded by whispers and rumors. Known for his brutal efficiency and deadly precision, Carter was once considered just another tool in Victor’s arsenal, a hired hand used to eliminate problems. But as whispers grew louder, more and more people began to question if Carter was truly just a mercenary, or if he was a pawn in a much larger game orchestrated by someone more powerful.

The answer to that question would come when the deaths began to mount. Damian’s death in France. The brutal stabbing of Nick at Kane’s estate. And the murder of Chance, the loyal man who had once been entrusted with the family’s security. Each victim had a connection, not just to Carter, but to Victor Newman.

The pattern was undeniable. Carter, once seen as just a hired hand, was now suspected to be the one carrying out Victor’s dirty work. But Victor’s greatest manipulation was the way he used Cain Ashby as a convenient scapegoat. Cain, already disliked by many, was framed as the unstable villain, while the true mastermind remained hidden in the shadows, controlling every move from behind the curtain.

Victoria’s Discovery: The Turning Point

As Victor’s empire began to crumble under the weight of these tragedies, it was Victoria who made the most shocking discovery. One night, she returned home early from a meeting, only to overhear a conversation that would change everything.

From outside the door, she heard her father’s low, urgent voice. When she peered through the crack, what she saw nearly stopped her heart. Carter, the very man who had been tied to the bloodshed and chaos surrounding Victor’s empire, was standing in the room with her father. A large suitcase, filled with bundles of cash, was open on the floor, and Victor handed Carter a folded piece of paper.

“You know what to do,” Victor said coldly, his voice betraying no emotion. “One more, then you’re done. Then disappear.”

Victoria’s world shook. She had always known her father was ruthless, willing to go to any lengths to protect his empire. But this? This was premeditated murder. This was something far darker than she could have ever imagined.

The Implications: A Family Torn Apart

Victoria’s mind raced. The more she thought about it, the more it became clear. Damian, Nick, and Chance were not random victims. They were targeted. They had been silenced because they had either crossed Victor’s path or threatened his grip on power. And now, as Victoria stood alone in her room, holding the damning photograph of her father with Carter, she realized the depth of her father’s treachery.

But what could she do with this information? If she exposed Victor now, it would destroy him. The Newman name would be tarnished forever. Genoa City would watch as the family empire crumbled beneath the weight of its patriarch’s darkest deeds. Yet, if she stayed silent, another life—perhaps someone she loved—would be the next victim.

Victoria knew that Carter would not stop. He was not just a hired killer. He was a man with a personal vendetta, a man who would keep going until he completed his mission. And the question Victoria now faced was whether she had the strength to stop it.

The Moment of Truth: Victoria’s Decision

As the weight of the photograph pressed heavily in her hand, Victoria stood at a crossroads. Her family, her legacy, and her father’s empire—all of it could be destroyed with one action. But the bloodshed and manipulation had gone too far. If she didn’t act, the cycle of death and betrayal would continue, and more people would die.

Victoria, struggling to reconcile her love for her father with the monstrous truth she had uncovered, made a decision that would alter everything.

With trembling hands, she sent the photograph to Adam, to Jack, and to the police. She attached a single message: Victor Newman is behind the murders. Carter is his hired hand. It’s time for the truth to come out.

The moment she hit send, she knew there would be no going back. Victor would find out. He always did. But Victoria had made her choice. She would no longer protect him. The truth would come out, no matter the cost.

What Happens Next?

As the fallout begins, the stakes in Genoa City have never been higher. Victor’s empire is on the verge of collapse. The Newman name is tainted with blood, and the family will have to reckon with the consequences of their patriarch’s dark actions. Will Victor go down for his crimes? How will Carter react to being exposed? And what will happen to the Newman family now that the truth is out?
