The Young and the Restless Spoilers: Murder Mystery Shocker – Amanda Is Targeting Cane?
The Young and the Restless spoilers suggest that there is officially a murder mystery storyline unravelling as Damian Kane (Jermaine Rivers) was stabbed in the back (literally) during the Monday, July 14 episode, so could Amanda Sinclair (Mishael Morgan) be the culprit?
Y&R fans found out a couple of weeks back that Cane Ashby (Billy Flynn) had asked Chance Chancellor (Conner Floyd) to attend his big summer party in Nice because he wanted him on hand to investigate someone targeting him.
Chance stuck out like a sore thumb amongst Genoa City’s elite at the shindig, but when Cane let it be known that he was concerned someone was trying to end his life, Chance agreed to help.
Still, Chance was completely shocked during the Tuesday, July 15 episode when he realized that Cane was going to take him up on that offer.
Damian met his demise after both he and Cane drank some tampered bourbon while having a chat somewhere within the maze.
Both were woozy, but as Damian drank far more than Cane, he was worse off. As Damian passed out into Cane’s arms, someone unknown threw a knife in the back of Damian, essentially offing him with one swift throw.
Cane was completely caught off guard by the perfectly executed ambush, and Phyllis Summers (Michelle Stafford) landed in the wrong place at the wrong time when she turned the corner and saw Damian, not moving, in Cane’s arms.
Phyllis was shaken by the scene she stumbled upon and questioned Cane’s motives.
Across the maze, Amanda sauntered into the bar area in need of a stiff drink. She came across Lily Winters (Christel Khalil) and the two had an interesting conversation.
Amanda seemed massively suspicious during the July 15 episode as she talked about how much Cane was still in love with Lily and how she helped him plan every party detail with Lily in mind.
To be honest, Amanda sounded resentful of Lily and her antics.
After all, Lily threw her new relationship with Damian in Cane’s face, and in many ways, some Y&R fans get the sense that Amanda has more than client-attorney feelings for her boss.
Plus, she seems more than just Cane’s lawyer; in many ways, she’s his confidante. Could Amanda have unresolved feelings for the billionaire mogul?
She obviously knows that Cane is still in love with Lily, but a lot of people fall in love with the wrong person. After all, the heart wants what it wants!
With that said, it’s been a hot minute since Amanda has been on canvas, and a lot can happen to turn soapy characters cray-cray.
Fans were shocked to learn Amanda was working with ‘Aristotle Dumas’ in the first place, so who’s to say she hasn’t had a trauma that has triggered her into a sociopath in the first place?
She may have told Cane how she feels, only for him to turn her down.
Cane does seem like a good person, so he may have pushed any awkwardness under the rug and carried on with Amanda as an employee and ‘friend’.
But what if Amanda is bitter that Cane has never taken to her advances?
Maybe she’s still bitter towards Lily because of Devon Hamilton-Winters’ (Bryton James) affair and can’t imagine why Cane is still taken with his ex-wife.
In fact, stabbing Damian may not have been a part of Amanda’s plan, but in some ways, knowing that it would hurt Lily in the long run may have given her a little satisfaction.
Most viewers seem to believe that Cane’s trusted assistant, Carter (Vincent Stalba), is behind Damian’s demise, but there’s nothing Y&R loves more than a plot twist.
The Young and the Restless spoilers remind fans that when it comes to ‘who dun it’ storylines, it’s always the last person anyone would suspect, and Amanda could be the culprit for a number of reasons: including her exclusive access to Cane’s bourbon collection and knowing the maze like the back of her hand!
