Longtime fans of The Young and the Restless know that Billy Boy Abbott (Jason Thompson) has never been Victor’s (Eric Braeden) favorite person. Besides being an Abbott, Victor also loathes Billy for the way he’s treated Victoria (Amelia Heinle) over the years in their on-again-off-again romance, and for Billy’s ongoing feud with Adam (Mark Grossman). In return, Billy has come to despise Victor for the constant swipes he takes at Jack (Peter Bergman), the constant interference Victor played in his marriage to Victoria and the raising of their children and Billy has never been a fan of Victor’s smugness.
With all that being said, both men were in their respective corners in Genoa City until Victor learned Jill (Jess Walton) gave Billy the reigns of Chancellor and he decided Billy was undeserving to run the legacy company of Katherine Chancellor (Jeanne Cooper). Victor devised a plan to take the business and give it to Nikki (Melody Thomas Scott), and despite all of Billy’s vibrato about stopping Victor, Jill wound up selling Chancellor back to Victor.
