Unfortunately for The Young and the Restless’ Billy (Jason Thompson), he’s running out of allies in the corporate world. After he and Devon (Bryton James) spearheaded the demerger of Chancellor-Winters and Billy recently fired Lily (Christel Khalil), Billy Boy Abbott is left pretty alone at the newly minted Abbott-Chancellor. That is of course, aside from his nephew Chance (Conner Floyd). However, as The Young and the Restless episodes airing during the week of September 2 are proving, Chance isn’t the "yes man" Billy was probably hoping to have as his number two.
When Billy shared with Chance that he fired Lily in the episode airing on September 3, the ex-cop was not pleased with his uncle. Chance questioned Billy’s abrupt decision, noting that Billy fired Lily on an unconfirmed suspicion (although to be fair, Lily subsequently admitted to Victor [Eric Braeden] that she was plotting to oust Billy). Additionally, Chance stressed the fact that Lily was pretty much the heart and soul of the company, and without her, the business faces uncertainty.
