The Young and the Restless is delivering a jaw-dropping international twist, and longtime fans won’t believe what’s about to happen. Spoilers reveal that Jill Abbott makes a dramatic entrance in Nice, France, where she comes face-to-face with Cane Ashby. But she’s not alone — Billy Abbott is right by her side. What follows is an explosive confrontation that unravels the darkest secret of all: the shocking truth behind Colin Atkinson’s death.
The Hunt for the Truth Leads to France
For weeks, whispers about Cane’s behavior and Victor Newman’s mysterious leverage have raised questions about what he’s hiding. Now, spoilers confirm that Jill decides she won’t sit idly by while secrets threaten to destroy her family.
Determined to uncover the truth once and for all, Jill boards a jet and heads to Nice, a city tied to Colin’s shady past. But Jill doesn’t travel alone — she recruits her son Billy, knowing his fiery temper and keen instincts might finally expose Cane’s lies.
Jill and Billy Confront Cane
Spoilers reveal that Jill and Billy corner Cane in a luxurious hotel overlooking the French Riviera. Cane, blindsided by their arrival, tries to put on his usual charm, insisting everything is under control. But Jill, weary from years of deception, isn’t buying it.
The confrontation quickly escalates. Billy, already suspicious of Cane’s loyalty and motives, throws accusations like daggers. Jill’s heartbreak turns to rage as she demands answers about Colin’s sudden disappearance. The tension snaps when Cane finally realizes he can’t dodge the truth anymore.

The Dark Secret: Colin’s Death
In a stunning revelation, spoilers confirm Cane confesses the unthinkable — Colin Atkinson is dead, and Cane himself was directly involved.
The confession rocks Jill to her core. For years, she endured Colin’s betrayals, schemes, and lies, but deep down, she once loved him. To hear that her son-in-law may have ended Colin’s life sends her into a whirlwind of grief, anger, and disbelief.
Billy, on the other hand, explodes with fury. He lashes out at Cane for keeping such a secret and for dragging Jill — and the entire Abbott family — into yet another scandal. In a shocking moment, spoilers suggest Billy even physically attacks Cane, accusing him of being a coward who hides behind excuses.
Was It Murder or Self-Defense?
Of course, nothing in Genoa City is ever black and white. Cane insists Colin’s death wasn’t cold-blooded murder but rather the tragic result of years of manipulation and a dangerous showdown that spiraled out of control.
Flashbacks may reveal the fateful night: Colin cornering Cane, issuing threats, and forcing him into an impossible choice. Whether it was self-defense or an act of desperation, Cane argues that Colin left him no other option.
But Jill isn’t sure she believes him. Was Cane really forced to kill Colin, or did years of resentment finally boil over into something far darker?
