What Happened on B&B
At the office, Carter (Lawrence Saint-Victor) and Ridge (Thorsten Kaye) commented on how well the perfume and jewelry line has been performing. But Ridge wanted to know what’s been going on in his friend’s personal life lately.
Carter shared that he has been spending a lot of time with Daphne (Murielle Hilaire), but she has been acting distant. He wants to make his feelings clear to her, especially since he had to work for it.
Meanwhile, at the showroom, Steffy (Jacqueline MacInnes Wood) informed Daphne about their plans to create a new scene for Hope for the Future. Daphne confessed that she was going to Paris. Steffy wondered what this meant about her relationship with Carter.
Daphne explained that while they had potential, a relationship takes time. After all, she missed her family and noted that Carter hadn’t clarified his feelings. She felt that she belonged in Paris again. While Steffy will miss her best friend, she thought she had fallen in love with him. But her friend coolly brushed those feelings aside.
Why Carter Fails to Miss the Point
Daphne mentioned to Steffy that they were casually dating. She wanted Carter to prove his love to her. This revelation shows that he only treated her as one of his dates. He should’ve used this time to get to know her.
However, Carter now feels that he must propose to Daphne quickly. They haven’t even reached the point where they entered a committed relationship. Once again, Carter failed to notice the error of his ways.
He could’ve made his feelings clear without a diamond ring. But Carter jumps from 0 to 60 when it comes to matters of the heart. Steffy interrupted Carter and Ridge’s conversation to inform Carter that Daphne was going back to Paris.
What Could Happen Next
Daphne’s insistence on leaving encouraged Carter’s rush to propose. However, we’ve seen him in this situation before, and it hasn’t worked out well for him. Maybe his luck will change this time?
B&B’s boss already gave away Daphne’s answers to Carter’s proposal. But will they actually make it down the aisle? We recall when Carter was eager to marry Hope (Annika Noelle) as soon as possible.
Does Daphne even want the same things that Carter wants, which is to settle down with a family? She was introduced as a woman who had many lovers. Even though Daphne loves Carter, she’s in for a culture and lifestyle shock.
