**YR Spoilers: Katie Takes a DNA Test – Claire and Cole Are Not Father and Daughter, Are They Cheating?**
Katie Newman, with her sharp intuition and observant nature, had long suspected something was amiss between Claire and Cole. Their interactions seemed strained, hinting at secrets beneath the surface. Driven by a desire to reunite her parents, Katie saw Cole as the key to family stability if he married Victoria. However, Katie doubted Cole’s true intentions, especially considering his mysterious past and connection to Jordan, whom he once saved from Victor’s sinister schemes.
One evening, Katie decided to follow Claire to uncover more. She trailed her to a secluded park where Claire met Cole. Hidden behind a tree, Katie overheard their conversation. Claire urgently whispered, “We need to stick to the plan, Cole. We can’t let anyone find out.” Cole replied, “Agreed, Claire. We’re allies in this, not family. We must play our parts perfectly.” The implications of their words were staggering.
Determined to get to the bottom of it, Katie discreetly obtained strands of hair from both Claire and Cole for a DNA test. Days later, the results confirmed her worst fears: Claire was not Cole’s daughter. They had been pretending all along. But why? Katie’s mind buzzed with questions. She knew she had to act quickly.
Katie’s thoughts were interrupted by a noise behind her. She turned to see Cole approaching, his eyes narrowed in suspicion. Realizing she had been discovered, Katie sprinted towards a nearby alley, hiding in a trash can just in time. Holding her breath, she listened as Cole’s frustrated footsteps drew closer. After a tense few moments, he cursed and walked away. Katie waited until the coast was clear before emerging, clutching the DNA test results.
The next morning, Katie confronted Claire, holding up the DNA test results. “I know you’re not Cole’s daughter. What are you really up to?” Claire’s face paled. She stammered, “Katie, you don’t understand.” Katie interrupted, “I understand more than you think. You and Cole have been plotting something, and I’m going to find out what it is.” Claire sighed, defeated. “Fine, you’re right. I’m not his daughter. We’ve been working together to take down Victor.”
Katie’s eyes widened in shock. “Why? What does Victor have to do with this?” Claire, burdened by her secret, confessed, “Victor ruined Cole’s life. He’s been planning his revenge for years, and I’m helping him. But I never wanted to hurt our family.”
As Katie processed Claire’s confession, the door burst open and Nick walked in. Sensing something was wrong, he demanded an explanation. Katie handed him the DNA test results. “Dad, Claire isn’t who she says she is. She and Cole have been plotting against Victor.” Nick’s face hardened. “This ends now,” he said coldly. Despite Claire’s pleas, Nick remained resolute. He escorted his daughters to the Newman Ranch to confront Victor.
Victor listened to their account, his mind already calculating the implications. “Thank you for bringing this to my attention,” he finally said. “I will handle this.” In the days that followed, Victor moved swiftly to neutralize the threat posed by Cole and Claire, taking legal actions and tightening security measures.
