In a jaw-dropping turn of events on The Bold and the Beautiful,

Brooke Logan sets her sights on taking down Steffy Forrester, and she’s

willing to go to extreme lengths to make it happen. As tensions rise at Forrester Creations,

Brooke begins to see Steffy as a direct threat to her

influence within the company. With an eye on regaining control, she hatches a devious plan to seduce Eric Forrester into firing his own

The history between Brooke and Eric is well-known, and despite their complicated past, Brooke still knows how to manipulate Eric’s emotions. She leverages their past romantic relationship, drawing him back into her web of seduction. Eric, feeling vulnerable and conflicted, begins to fall under her spell once again. Brooke carefully plays the victim, convincing Eric that Steffy’s leadership at Forrester Creations is undermining the company’s future and that drastic action needs to be taken. She fuels his insecurities, reminding him of his loyalty to the family legacy and framing Steffy as a rebellious force who’s taking Forrester Creations in the wrong direction.

As the pressure mounts, Brooke intensifies her efforts, suggesting that firing Steffy is the only way to save the company from further turmoil. She paints a picture of Steffy as untrustworthy and too reckless, convincing Eric that her removal would be a necessary step to restoring stability to the fashion house. Eric, torn between his love for Steffy and his lingering affection for Brooke, is pushed to his breaking point. Brooke’s manipulation starts to pay off, as Eric considers making the devastating decision to remove Steffy from her position at Forrester Creations.
