Y&R Restless Spoilers – Amelia Heinle Explains

Soap Opera Digest asked Heinle if Victoria’s goal is to completely demoralize Adam. Even though it might appear that way, the actress explains that’s only part of it. The bigger reason is that Victoria needs to trust whoever is her co-CEO. Victoria doesn’t trust Adam, so of course, she doesn’t want him running the company.

“Maybe, on some level [intending to demoralize Adam], but she truly believes that he can’t be trusted and she needs to have complete faith in her right-hand person.”
