After a long-standing relationship with Brooke, Ridge is finding it hard to believe that she would betray him. Their bond has been tested countless times, but this time feels different. Despite Brooke’s actions, Ridge holds on to the hope that there may be a reason behind her choices—perhaps, a strategy to help him become an insider at the company. Ridge wonders whether Brooke’s actions were meant to help him gain a foothold in the business world, but it’s hard to ignore the doubts that linger.

Taylor, ever the voice of reason, continues to warn Ridge. She’s convinced that Brooke’s actions can only mean one thing: betrayal. If Brooke truly had good intentions, why wouldn’t she have informed Ridge in advance? Why did she wait until the news broke on social media? Taylor’s constant reminders are pushing Ridge closer to a difficult decision.

The tension between Brooke and Ridge reached its breaking point during a heated argument, where Ridge insulted Brooke’s daughter, Hope. Ridge, feeling the weight of the situation, left Brooke’s house and found solace at Steffy’s. There, he met with Taylor, who provided a comforting shoulder to lean on. Ridge was deeply touched by Taylor’s concern, and for a moment, it seemed like he could find peace in her embrace.

Despite their emotional connection, Ridge has yet to officially break up with Brooke, and the question remains: What does Ridge want? Will he choose to reunite with Taylor, or will he go back to Brooke to try and mend their fractured relationship? There’s also the possibility that Ridge may decide to stay single for a while to clear his mind and focus on the bigger picture.

Aside from his personal life, Ridge faces another monumental task—regaining control of Forrester Creations. He can’t let Carter keep the company indefinitely, and this internal power struggle is pushing Ridge, Steffy, Eric, and Zen to strategize on how to reclaim the company. Zen’s decision to side with the Foresters creates a rift in the plan, but the team believes the only way forward is for Zen to pretend to align with Carter and act as a spy within the company. This plan keeps Carter unaware while the Foresters try to reclaim their place at the top.

But what about Brooke? Did she really betray Ridge, or is she playing a bigger game to fool Carter? Ridge’s shock intensifies when he sees Brooke appear in Carter’s announcement video as the new CEO of Forrester Creations. The position once held by Steffy is now Brooke’s, and Ridge is left reeling.

Ridge faces a tough decision—should he meet with Brooke to discuss their future, or will he move forward with Taylor? With so much at stake, it’s anyone’s guess how Ridge will navigate this emotional maze. Will love guide his decisions, or will his loyalty to family and business take precedence? Only time will tell.
