Devon entered the country club dining room towards the end of the hour, where he received a warm welcome from Anita and Vernon, who were apparently close friends with his father (played by the late Kristoff St. John). 'How we miss Neil,' Anita said. 'His smile, his big heart, his love of music.'
Devon admitted to being nervous the first time his father introduced him to Anita at Indigo (aka the old jazz club on Y&R), but he seems much more at ease now — which is good, because he had a 'mind-blowing proposition' for the lead singer of the Articulettes.
After being 'blown away' watching a livestream of the reunion concert, Devon knew he had his 'next platinum project' for his jazz label Winter's Mood, offering Anita a recording contract for a new album on which she would have 'complete creative control.' It was a tempting opportunity, but Anita replied, 'I simply don't have the bandwidth to record, let alone produce, an album at the moment.'
Vernon suggested that Anita take a few days to reconsider, but she insisted that she needs to stay close to her family. Devon even offered to book a studio in D.C. to keep her nearby, but her mind had already been made up. She did, however, offer an enticing alternative: what if he signs Tracy and Sharon, with Anita appearing as a featured artist on several tracks? Even better, they can rerelease 'Let's Get Closer,' this time with Barbara's vocals included.
It wasn't the deal he came for, but Devon seemed pretty pleased with the outcome of his brief meeting with Anita, telling her and Vernon to check out the new Winters Lounge at the Genoa City Athletic Club the next time they're in town. He also bumped into Dani on his way out of the country club. It was a blink-and-you-missed-it encounter, but Dani definitely liked what she saw.
James, who was first introduced to TV viewers as Family Matters tyke Richie Crawford, has forged an impressive career in daytime. His work as Devon on The Young and the Restless, a role he has played since 2004, has earned him two Daytime Emmy Awards.

Sally Holds the Power to Take Cane Down After Billy's Bold Move on Y&R August 13
In the August 13 episode of The Young and the Restless, Billy made a potentially game-changing decision. In a decisive moment, he handed control of Abbott Communications to Sally, which gives her the means to hit Cane where it hurts most. Will she be up to wielding that much power against such a formidable adversary? Billy Hands Over Abbott Communications Billy (Jason Thompson) made a decisive move that could shift the power dynamics in Genoa City's corporate battles. He handed control of Abbott Communications to Sally (Courtney Hope). The handoff wasn't hesitant—Billy gave her his full support to lead the media company her way. This wasn't simply about delegation. By putting Sally in charge, Billy placed her in a prime position to use the company's influence in the brewing war with Cane (Daniel Goddard). MORE: Find out what happens next on Y&R. A Strategic Weapon Against Cane Cane has been maneuvering to expand his reach, building alliances, and keeping his next move under wraps. But Abbott Communications could be a potent weapon, and Sally holds the trigger. Sally now has access to a corporate platform capable of shaping public perception, directing media narratives, and leveraging business connections that could directly impact Cane's ability to operate in Genoa City. Her leadership at Abbott Communications could turn the company into a precision tool aimed squarely at dismantling his plans. High Stakes for Everyone Involved The move comes with risk. Billy knows Cane's ambitions could threaten both Jabot and Chancellor, and his family might see his maneuver as dangerous. But in his view, positioning Sally where she can counter Cane is worth the gamble. Sally, never one to shy away from high-pressure opportunities, is now able to affect Cane's fate. She could choose to use her leverage for maximum damage, or she might keep her powder dry and negotiate for strategic advantage. What Happens Next? The big unknown is how Sally will choose to play this. A fast, aggressive move could destabilize Cane quickly, but it also risks drawing counterattacks from a man known for making bold plays of his own. A slower, more strategic approach could allow her to tighten the pressure until Cane has no room to maneuver. Plus, there's a chance Cane will underestimate Sally since she's relatively unknown in the business world. Either way, Billy's bold handoff has set the stage for a high-stakes showdown—and Sally's next decision could change everything. WATCH THIS: Soap Hub Says discusses the latest soap drama.
