Liam received news that left him stunned CBS The Bold and the Beautiful Spoilers

After a conversation with Will, Liam comes to a significant realization about the importance of family.

He is determined to provide Beth with a happy, stable home, believing that a complete family is essential for her upbringing.

Though he and Hope, Beth’s mother, have been divorced for a while, they both still care deeply about their daughter.

However, Liam begins to wonder if Beth’s life could ever be as good as it was when their family was still intact.

The conversation with Will makes Liam reflect on his priorities, leading him to the decision that he wants to reunite with Hope.

He assumes Hope is still single, as he hasn’t seen her dating anyone publicly, and believes that if he proposes to get back together, Hope will agree.

After all, they shared many happy times together.

However, Liam is left in shock when Hope rejects his proposal. The shock intensifies when Hope reveals that she is now in a relationship with Carter.

Liam had no idea that Hope and Carter had grown close, as they had never seemed to have a significant connection before.

He’s even more surprised given how quickly this relationship seems to have progressed.

Not long ago, Hope had broken things off with Thomas, then developed feelings for Finn, only to be rejected.

Liam struggles to believe that Hope could have fallen for Carter so quickly and wonders if there’s another reason for her rejection.

He recalls how much he hurt Hope when he was unfaithful to her, and he suspects that she’s afraid of being hurt again.

Despite this, Liam is not ready to give up on his feelings for Hope.

He believes he has many advantages over Carter. Liam is younger, comes from a well-respected family, and stands to inherit Spencer Publications from his father, Bill.

Many women have shown interest in Liam because of his background, so he feels confident that Hope will reconsider.

After all, they share a child, Beth, and Liam believes that he can use their bond with Beth to rekindle their love.

But is Liam’s confidence misplaced? Hope seems to genuinely care for Carter.

Carter, known for his loyalty and warmth, offers Hope something she has never found in Liam—stability. Can Liam compete with that, or has Hope truly moved on?
