CBS The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers reveal that Carter,

a long-time member of Forrester Creations, is feeling undervalued

despite his hard work and close relationship with the Forrester family.

Carter proposed a bold idea to help the company grow, but both Steffy and Ridge rejected it. Was their opposition due to a fear of risk, or does it hint at a lack of respect for Carter’s contributions?

Adding to Carter’s frustration, he tried to stop Steffy from firing Hope. Hope has always been a dedicated worker who contributed significantly to the company, yet Steffy was firm in her decision.

Carter’s dissatisfaction isn’t just about his rejected idea or Steffy’s treatment of Hope. His actions have been driven by deeper feelings for Hope.

Carter has stepped beyond his role as COO to support Hope and her Hope for the Future line, a move that Ridge and Steffy understandably opposed.

As COO, Carter’s role is to support decisions, not strategize independently. However, his personal investment in Hope pushed him to act outside his authority.

Steffy’s decision to fire Hope doesn’t just strain Carter’s relationship with her—it creates ripples throughout Forrester Creations.

If Hope leaves, Carter fears their bond will weaken, fueling speculation that his frustration with Steffy and Ridge may lead to thoughts of revenge.

Meanwhile, Brooke is furious with Ridge for siding with Steffy. She feels that firing Hope was unjustified, and Ridge’s support of Steffy’s decision threatens to fracture their already fragile relationship.

Both Ridge and Brooke are determined to protect their daughters, but this conflict could drive them further apart.

On another front, Deacon has his own grievances. He believes Finn misunderstood Hope’s intentions, jumping to conclusions about her relationship with him.

According to Deacon, Hope’s personality doesn’t align with the accusations. The truth? Hope’s gesture with the lingerie was meant to surprise Carter, not Finn. But how can they prove this while keeping their relationship secret?

Steffy’s decision to fire Hope has set off a domino effect, creating tension among Carter, Ridge, Brooke, and even Deacon and Finn.

With emotions running high and secrets lurking in the background, the drama at Forrester Creations is far from over.
