Steffy’s Seductress Strikes!

Operation Carter Walton is proceeding exactly as Steffy Forrester planned! At Forrester Creations, the stage was set for a masterful seduction as Daphne Rose unveiled her intoxicating new fragrance, leaving both Carter Walton and Hope Logan initially swooning. But once the unsuspecting Hope skipped off to a meeting, Daphne’s true agenda emerged in spectacular fashion.

A Dance of Seduction

In a scene that would make any soap opera villainess proud, Daphne turned up the heat, dancing around the mesmerized COO while sensually stroking his chest. The master of scent and seduction ordered Carter to look into her eyes, rendering him practically speechless. “Men and women the world over want me and what I have,” Daphne purred. “And you have me.”

Steffy Savors Her Success

Back at the cliff house, Steffy could barely contain her satisfaction while discussing the plan with Ridge. When her father urged her not to be smug, Steffy insisted she doesn’t do smug – she’s simply pleased. The scent lingers in the air, and Steffy remains confident it’s only a matter of time before Carter falls completely under Daphne’s spell. Her ultimate goal? Put an end to what she calls “gold digger” Hope and this coup once and for all.

Tension in the Design Office

Meanwhile, in an awkward encounter in the design office, Steffy and Hope found themselves reviewing Zende’s latest work. Hope’s surprise at Steffy’s lack of snark was short-lived as they quickly fell into their usual pattern of bickering over who’s really in charge.

Shocking Prison Twist

In other dramatic developments, Poppy made a desperate attempt to see Luna in prison, only to discover from the warden that her daughter wasn’t there. This shocking revelation comes as Finn grapples with questions about Luna’s paternity. Despite Poppy’s insistence that he’s not Luna’s father, Finn secretly obtained a paternity test, though memories of Luna’s attack on Steffy led him to doubt the possibility.

Bill’s Emotional Confession

At Bill Spencer’s mansion, an emotional connection deepened between Bill and Luna as he shared never-before-revealed details about his troubled childhood. Opening up about his own father issues, Bill admitted to Luna that his mother never spoke about his father, describing a revolving door of men and a childhood where his needs were never met. As Luna wished aloud that Bill were her father, she collapsed into tears against his chest, creating a moment of raw vulnerability between two wounded souls.
