The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers for August 28 will see Steffy and Carter’s secret taking center stage. The pair agreed to keep their night of passion under wraps, but it’s set to come to a head.

Key Takeaways

  • Why Carter and Steffy are staying hush about their night together.
  • Who nearly learned the truth about their conversation.

What Happened Previously on B&B?

Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) wanted to tell Finn (Tanner Novlan) that she slept with Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor). She believes their marriage can weather the storm of the betrayal. However, Carter is sure his marriage to Daphne (Murielle Hilaire) wouldn’t survive the truth.

Carter told Steffy that the betrayal is too great. She’s his wife’s best friend. Telling Daphne they had sex would ruin their relationship and his with Ridge (Thorsten Kaye). The COO is a close family friend, but he’s been on the Forresters’ bad side more than once from an affair with Quinn (Rena Sofer) to stealing their company on behalf of Hope (Annika Noelle).

Speaking of Ridge, he walked in on Steffy and Carter having a private conversation in a secluded room at work. He thought Carter was supporting Steffy. Ridge had been of the mind that Carter was listening to his daughter about Monaco. The reason Steffy left was that Sheila (Kimberlin Brown) made an unexpected appearance, and Finn knew about it.

In his gratitude, Ridge shared how good a man he believes Carter to be. But he also mentioned that their friendship was at its worst when he was seeing Hope. He didn’t like that his best friend was in a relationship with his wife’s daughter. His words confirmed for Steffy that Ridge would have a serious problem with Carter and Steffy’s dalliance.

Seeing Carter’s point of view, Steffy decided that she wouldn’t tell Finn that she cheated on him. She said it’s so she can protect their spouses and Carter from the hurt the truth would cause.
