Claire appears to be under pressure from this mysterious individual, whom she refers to as Aunt Jordan, to complete a task. Claire replies, "Yes, I understand. I just thought I’d have more time. I’m making progress."

She later assures Aunt Jordan that she’ll handle matters. She ends the call, saying, “I love you, too”. This is proof that Claire is up to something and that she's not working alone.

While fans previously speculated that Claire was after Victoria because of a connection to Sabrina (Raya Meddine), Victoria's deceased friend who is also Victor's (Eric Braeden) dead wife, the mention of Aunt Jordan has viewers wondering who this mystery aunt is and how she might be connected to the Newmans. It's quite plausible that Jordan might turn out to be Sabrina's sister and is assisting Claire in her vengeance scheme.

Claire’s connection to Aunt Jordan

There has been much intrigue about Claire, played by Hayley Erin, and her desires ever since she first appeared in The Young and the Restless. She has succeeded in landing a position as Nikki's (Melody Thomas Scott) secretary at Newman Enterprises. However, something seems off about her dealings with the Newman family.

Claire considers herself somewhat of a Newman family ‘fan-girl’ with the most recent display of her knowledge of the Newmans in front of Victoria, played by Amelia Heinle. She was also seen staring at pictures of Nikki and Victoria in her apartment.

Additionally, Claire has been acting as though she wants to grow closer to Victoria's boyfriend by arranging moments with Nate (Sean Dominic). Fans' speculation that Claire is part of a scheme to assail the Newman heiress stems ‌from her specific attention on Victoria.

The narrative can also reveal Aunt Jordan as the sister of Ashland Locke (Robert Newman), the evil husband of Victoria. Claire would be his daughter. Given Ashland's reputation for lying, it is plausible that he never told Victoria that he had a sister or perhaps an adult daughter. Claire's desire for vengeance would be justified given how Ashland was killed and how the Newmans covered up his death, assuming she is connected to him.
