‘The Young and the Restless’ spoilers reveal Adam Newman receives a tempting job offer

Poor Adam is always getting the short end of the stick on The Young and the Restless. After years of hard work and regaining his father’s trust, he was finally appointed CEO of Newman Enterprises. Yet, Adam’s tenure was short-lived when Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle) returned.

Victor didn’t waste any time ousting Adam and giving Victoria her job back. Adam was pissed, and rightfully so. The family has cost him his job and his relationship with Sally Spectra (Courtney Hope).

While everyone’s going about their business, Adam is contemplating his next move. According to Celeb Dirty Laundry, spoilers reveal that Adam receives an offer from his friend Jack Abbott (Peter Bergman). Jack wants Adam to come work with him as his new co-CEO at Jabot, an opportunity Adam can’t refuse.

Victor Newman disagrees with Adam Newman’s decision

Newman patriarch Victor has his hands full trying to cover up Ashland Locke’s (Robert Newman) murder. Aside from keeping the police off his trail, he’s also keeping a panicked Victoria and Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) calm. As if Victor’s family problems weren’t already massive, he has to deal with Adam’s shocking business move.

Victor will blow a gasket when he learns Adam’s working at Jabot. The Moustache has always been about family, so he’ll feel betrayed by Adam’s decision. In Victor’s mind, he’s tried to make Adam feel welcomed, yet Adam keeps pushing everyone away.

However, Adam has every right to feel angry. Adam never felt like he fit in with the family, especially from Nikki Newman (Melody Thomas Scott). No matter how hard Adam changes, he’ll never be accepted. Something Victor proved clear when he threw him over for the CEO spot.

Another round of the Adam versus the Newmans feud is coming on The Young and the Restless. But they might not be the only family affected by this business move.
