In the high-stakes world of Genoa City, Jack Abbott finds

himself at a critical crossroads. His longstanding rivalry with

Victor Newman has taken him through countless battles, some of which he’s won, while others have left him tasting bitter defeat. Jack has always been a master strategist, adapting to the situation at hand. But now, as he faces yet another looming confrontation with Victor, he knows that his usual tactics will no longer suffice. Victor is too powerful, too cunning, and too relentless. If Jack continues on his current path, he’s certain he’ll lose this war.

Desperate for a new strategy, Jack turns his attention to Audra Charles, a woman who has shown herself to be ambitious, intelligent, and willing to do whatever it takes to get ahead. Audra is currently working within the Newman Empire, seemingly under Victor’s control, but Jack knows she’s not content playing second fiddle. Audra craves power, control, and the freedom to shape her own destiny, and Jack is prepared to offer her all of that—if she helps him bring Victor down.

Jack has been observing Audra for some time, analyzing her moves, her motivations, and her ambitions. He’s aware that she’s not a woman to be underestimated, but he also knows that the allure of a lucrative partnership might just be the key to winning her over. If Jack can convince Audra that their interests align and that working together will give her the power she desires, she might be willing to take the necessary steps to remove Victor from the equation.

The plan Jack has in mind is drastic and fraught with risk, but he believes it’s the only way to neutralize Victor once and for all. The idea is simple yet chilling—poison. If Victor were to die suddenly or become incapacitated, his iron grip on Newman Enterprises would weaken, providing Jack and Audra the opportunity to seize control. It’s a dangerous game, one that could easily backfire, but Jack is confident in his ability to cover his tracks. If anything goes wrong, Audra will be left to face the consequences, not him. It’s a cold, calculated move, but Jack knows that in the ruthless world of high-stakes business, sentimentality is a luxury he can’t afford.

Jack arranges a private meeting with Audra at a discreet location, ensuring they won’t be overheard. When she arrives, she’s as poised and composed as ever, but Jack can see the curiosity in her eyes, the hunger for whatever opportunity he’s about to present.

“Thank you for meeting with me, Audra,” Jack begins, his tone smooth and persuasive. “I’ve been watching you, and I can see that you’re not content with the way things are. You want more, don’t you?”

Audra raises an eyebrow, her interest piqued. “Go on,” she says, leaning back in her chair.

Jack smiles, knowing he has her attention. “Victor has been holding you back. He uses you when it suits him, but you and I both know that you’re capable of so much more. I’m offering you a chance to change that, to take control of your own destiny.”

“And what exactly are you proposing?” Audra asks, her voice carefully neutral.A youtube thumbnail with the maxres quality

Jack leans forward, his voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper. “Victor is the obstacle standing in your way—in our way. If he were removed from the picture, you and I could work together to achieve everything we’ve ever wanted. You’d be free to build the career you’ve always dreamed of without Victor pulling the strings.”

Audra’s eyes narrow slightly as she considers his words. “And how do you propose we remove Victor?”

Jack hesitates for a moment, as if weighing his words carefully. “There’s a way to make sure Victor is no longer a threat. It’s risky, but it’s effective. I’m talking about poison, Audra. Something that could either kill him outright or incapacitate him so severely that he could never pose a threat again.”

Audra stares at him, her expression unreadable. Jack can’t tell if she’s horrified by the suggestion or intrigued by the possibility. After a long moment, she speaks. “That’s a bold plan, Jack, but if something goes wrong, I’m the one who will take the fall. You’ve already made sure of that, haven’t you?”

Jack doesn’t deny it. “I’m not going to lie to you, Audra. There are risks involved, but the rewards—they’re worth it. You’d be free of Victor, free to make your own decisions, to carve out your own path. You’d have the power you’ve always wanted.”

Audra considers his offer carefully. She knows Jack is right—Victor is a formidable force, and as long as he’s in the picture, her ambitions will always be constrained. But the idea of poisoning Victor, taking such a drastic and irreversible step, weighs heavily on her conscience. If the plan succeeds, she’ll be in a position of power, but if it fails, she’ll be the one facing the consequences, not Jack. She’ll be the one answering for attempted murder.

Yet the temptation is there—the thought of finally being free from Victor’s influence, of being able to shape her own future without fear of retribution, is tantalizing. Audra knows she has to make a decision, and she has to make it soon.

Jack watches her closely, sensing the conflict within her. “Think about it, Audra,” he says softly. “This is your chance to take control, to be the master of your own fate. Don’t let it slip away.”

Audra nods slowly, her mind racing. She knows she can’t rush this decision. She’ll have to weigh the risks and the rewards, and consider every possible outcome before she makes her move. As she leaves the meeting, Audra feels a mixture of excitement and dread. The choice before her is stark: take the chance that could elevate her to new heights, or walk away and remain under Victor’s thumb. Either way, her life will never be the same.

Back in his office, Jack smiles to himself. He’s planted the seed, and now all he has to do is wait. Whether Audra decides to go through with the plan or not, Jack knows he’s set events in motion that will change the landscape of their world forever. The question is, will Audra have the nerve to take the final step? And if she does, what will happen to the mighty Victor Newman? The answer lies in Audra’s hands, and Jack can only hope that she’ll make the choice that will bring them both the victory they so desperately seek.
