Finn Demanded Answers While Steffy Panicked Over Ridge’s Call
Back at the cliff house, Steffy’s (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) fainting spell prompted Finn (Tanner Novlan, who warned Steffy should watch out) to rush to reassure Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) and Taylor (Rebecca Budig) that emergency services weren’t needed. Though he wanted to know why her baby news caused her to collapse in front of them.
As Steffy regained consciousness, she immediately panicked upon learning that Ridge had already summoned Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) to the house. He nervously paced his office, repeating to himself that Ridge wanted to see him and praying Steffy wouldn’t confess.
But the net was already closing in on them both. And this time, they might not be able to escape their web of lies.
Daphne Stands Her Ground and By Her Man
Meanwhile, Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) walked into the CEO’s office and noticed his visible distress. She assumed Ridge would eventually understand once he cooled down.
Carter desperately tried to go to the cliff house alone to shield her from the negativity. But Daphne stood her ground and refused to stay behind. She insisted she had every right to face the music since it was their child too. Her unyielding determination dragged them both into the lion’s den.
This set the stage for a confrontation where a slip of the tongue could change everything for two couples. Carter was panicked about what could come of it.
Ridge Corners Carter and Demands the Truth
The moment Carter and Daphne arrived, Ridge wasted no time unleashing his fury. He demanded to know what kind of man Carter was to betray a friendship and target his daughter like this.
He didn’t want the neat-and-tidy surrogacy explanation. Ridge pointed out the glaring holes in this narrative and insisted there was a larger story beneath the surface.
Carter found himself backed into a corner by a father who could smell deception from a mile away. He faced an ultimatum to deliver the truth or watch his entire world slip away.
