As tensions explode in Nice, France, the idyllic luxury villa transforms into a trap for the Newman family, as Nick, Sharon, and Nikki struggle to survive in a world full of hidden threats. What began as an escape from Genoa City’s chaos quickly morphs into a deadly hunt, and with everyone’s secrets on the line, no one can be trusted. Can the Newmans survive, or will they fall victim to an unseen hand orchestrating a tragic vendetta?

💔 The Gilded Cage: Nick and Sharon’s Captivity

The once serene estate now feels like a prison. Guarded by the eerily calm and calculating Carter, Nick and Sharon quickly realize they aren’t being protected—they’re being contained. Nick’s desperate attempts to escape are met with silence and calculated moves from Carter, whose every action seems driven by a dark purpose. But as Nick uncovers the truth, he realizes that someone is hunting those from Genoa City, and he may be next. Damian Cain was just the beginning.

⚔️ Nikki’s Terrifying Encounter: The Killer’s Blade

Upstairs, Nikki senses the chilling presence of someone lurking in the shadows. As the lights flicker and silence falls, she faces a gloved figure with a blade—a clear target. With Victor racing to her rescue, the question lingers: Who is behind this attack? Was it a personal vendetta or something far more sinister? The closer Victor gets, the more the truth seems to elude him. Was it Cain, the man he despises, or someone else?

🩸 Nick’s Bleeding Escape: A Lifesaving Intervention

Back downstairs, Nick’s fury has boiled over, leading to a violent altercation with Carter. A brutal blow lands just under Nick’s ribs, and he’s left bleeding, barely conscious. Sharon is torn between rage and panic as she tries to help him, but the clock is ticking. Enter Sally Spectra—she arrives in France for business but finds herself unexpectedly pulled into the chaos. Seeing Nick’s blood-soaked shirt and Sharon’s frantic state, Sally wastes no time, pulling off a daring rescue and getting them out of the locked villa.

🌙 The Silent Shadows: The Mystery Deepens

As Sally and Sharon help Nick escape under the cover of moonlight, Victor fights to protect Nikki. But as his fists land on the attacker, the figure vanishes into the night. The authorities arrive too late, and with Carter nowhere to be found and Cain denying any involvement, the question remains: who is really behind the vendetta? Could it be Carter manipulating the strings, or has Cain taken it a step further to cover his tracks and play the hero? Every move is being watched, and no one is safe.

🕵️‍♂️ Billy and Sally’s Investigation: Exposing the Truth

With Nick’s innocence at stake, Billy Abbott and Sally Spectra team up to uncover the truth. Their investigation uncovers a crucial digital server containing partial backups of the missing security footage. But the mystery is far from solved. As Billy digs deeper into Carter’s movements, the pieces start to fall into place. Could Carter be the real puppet master, or is someone else pulling the strings? Sally and Billy race against time to expose the truth and exonerate Nick before it’s too late.

💀 Cain’s Redemption or Deception?

Amid the chaos, Cain Ashby attempts to shift suspicion away from himself by positioning himself as the reluctant savior. But Victor isn’t buying it. Cain’s attempt at redemption may be a clever ruse to divert attention from his darker past, including the missing footage and planted evidence. Amanda doesn’t trust him either and is keeping a close eye on his every move. The pieces are falling into place, but who can be trusted in this deadly game of cat and mouse?
