Brooke Logan is enjoying a private business trip with Ridge Forrester in Monte Carlo,

a change from their usual hectic routines. With Steffy Forrester having missed the trip

due to some paperwork issues, Brooke is relishing the opportunity to have Ridge all to herself.

Though the trip is business-oriented, Brooke hopes it will be a chance for them to rekindle their romance. However, Ridge is deeply immersed in work, particularly focused on Brooke’s bedroom project, which is causing some friction. Despite Ridge’s dedication to the project, Brooke tries to remind him of the personal benefits of their trip, hoping to reignite their connection.

Back in Los Angeles, Steffy is seething with frustration after her business trip goes awry. Stranded at the airport due to a missing passport, Steffy suspects that Hope Logan may have sabotaged her plans to clear the way for Brooke and Ridge’s private getaway. The animosity between Steffy and Hope has already been tense, and this latest incident is sure to worsen their strained relationship. Steffy’s anger is compounded by her feeling of betrayal, as she suspects Hope of playing dirty to undermine her.

In another storyline, Luna is standing up to Katie Logan, who has been excessively critical of Poppy, Luna’s friend. Katie and Bill Spencer’s relationship is over, but Katie’s ongoing attacks on Poppy are unwarranted and baseless, especially since Katie has no evidence to support her claims about Poppy. Katie’s accusations are particularly problematic as the police are still investigating the deaths of Tom and Hollis, and no conclusions have been reached. Luna, who believes Katie is simply jealous of Poppy’s relationship with Bill, is prepared to take action against Katie to protect Poppy.

However, Luna’s trust in Poppy might soon be challenged. Luna stumbles upon letters from Tom that reveal surprising and troubling information: Tom claims in his letters to be Luna’s biological father. This revelation raises questions about why Poppy has these letters, given that Hollis previously found them in Tom’s backpack. Luna’s discovery will likely lead to a confrontation with Poppy, leaving both women to navigate the fallout of these unexpected revelations.
