Disclaimer: This article contains spoilers for The Young and the Restless and may contain elements that are speculative in nature. Reader discretion is advised.
The villains, Ian Ward and Jordan Howard, orchestrated Sharon's kidnapping, and were even the ones responsible for Heather's accident. However, Jordan has recently gone rogue against Ian and, instead of killing Sharon as discussed, has kept her prisoner and stowed her away in a sewer tunnel.
Now, spoilers for the soap indicate that Nick Newman and Chance Chancellor are on their way to discovering the full truth and motive behind Jordan's actions in upcoming episodes. It remains to be seen whether these revelations will be instrumental in saving Sharon, or whether the duo will be too late to stop Jordan's nefarious activity.
What to expect in the current storyline with Jordan kidnapping Sharon on The Young and the Restless?
Jordan Howard is responsible for kidnapping Sharon Newman and keeping her bound up and tied in a sewer tunnel on the soap. She has also been involved in pairing up with Ian Ward and orchestrating a string of crimes to terrorize the citizens of Genoa City, starting with the murder of Heather Stevens.
The recent episodes in the storyline have explored Sharon trying to free herself unsuccessfully from Jordan's hold, plagued by visions of Nick and Cameron. Now, spoilers for the upcoming episodes indicate that Nick Newman and Detective Chance Chancellor will get closer in their search for Sharon. Nick and Chance have been actively looking for Sharon ever since her disappearance, and it seems that the two might finally have leads.
Since Nick knows the motel where Ian lives, it is likely that Nick and Chance break into the room and search it. They might even uncover Ian's plans to kill Sharon and frame Phyllis, and then see hints that Sharon might still be alive and imprisoned, courtesy of Jordan. This shall bring them one step closer to the truth and to finding where Sharon has been stowed away.
With Nick and Chance finally on the right track, it seems that a full rescue operation for Sharon will be underway quite soon. However, it would not be wise to underestimate Jordan in this situation. The villain has proved to be dangerous before, and might do something unexpected if she is on the verge of being caught. It remains to be seen how this storyline will pan out for Sharon before she can be free.
