1980 (#28) - The Abbott Family

The young womanizer Jack Abbott, John's son, has never had any interest in the family business until now; nor his other two daughters, the elder Ashley and the younger sister Traci, both studying abroad. Jack's lack of interest in Jabot company, however, was not to last long; until Jill asked him out for a drink as a thank-you for his comprehension when Liz was admitted to the hospital. During the meeting Jill confides to a Jack, strongly interested in the woman, that she likes ambitious and successful men, which pushes Jack to tell his father that he wanted to join the family business. John is so grateful to Jill for encouraging Jack, who is ready to win Jill's heart, and confesses to the woman that he has been looking forward to this day for a long time. A very happy John hopes that a love can blossom in the couple between Jill and Jack, and he tries to bring the two closer by assigning them a job together in the drafting of the new advertising campaign.
