In a heartbreaking twist that’s sure to send shockwaves through The Bold and the Beautiful, Liam finds himself staring down a life-altering diagnosis. As his health spirals and time becomes a precious commodity, he’s forced to confront a painful reality: he may not have long left. With a heavy heart and the guidance of Dr. Grace, who presents him with some life-or-death decisions, Liam begins to quietly come to terms with his fate. To those around him, he seems calm—resigned even. They believe he’s finally found peace, choosing to spend his remaining time tying up loose ends and making peace with the life he’s lived.

But just when it seems the storm has passed and the emotional waters have calmed, Steffy makes a startling discovery that reignites a firestorm of confusion and betrayal.

While going through one of Liam’s bags at her house, Steffy finds a sealed envelope tucked away—unmarked and mysterious. Her instincts tell her to leave it alone, but her curiosity won’t let her. What she finds inside is nothing short of earth-shattering: Liam’s will.

At first, Steffy hesitates, unsure if she should even read beyond the heading. But then, one name jumps out at her—Kelly Spencer. As her eyes scan the contents, a cold shock runs through her. Liam has left everything—his estate, savings, and even the valuables in his safety deposit box—to their daughter Kelly. There’s no mention of Beth. Not a line. Not even a passing reference.

Steffy’s heart races. Her mind scrambles to find logic in the chaos. Maybe it’s an old version, something from before Beth was born. But then she sees the date—recent, written just after his latest round of doctor visits, when Liam was already aware of the ticking clock. That’s when the dread sets in for real.

Why would Liam purposely leave Beth out? What could possibly explain such a shocking omission? Is he hiding something too painful to share?

Unable to keep this discovery to herself, Steffy picks up the phone and calls Hope. Her voice is shaky, urgent: “You need to come over. Now. It’s about Liam.”

Within the hour, Hope arrives at the cliff house, expecting a medical update or maybe a discussion about how to support Liam through the coming days. What she gets instead is a pale, visibly shaken Steffy holding out the will with trembling hands. “Read it,” she says. “Just read it.”

Hope takes the pages, her hands quivering as she skims through them. Her expression crumbles. She reads the lines over and over, trying to will her daughter’s name into existence on the page. But Beth’s name isn’t there. It’s nowhere.

“This doesn’t make any sense,” Hope whispers, her voice cracking. “He loves Beth. He’s always been there for her. Just recently, he told her how proud he was of the young woman she’s becoming.”

She’s reeling. None of it fits. Why would a devoted father erase one of his children from his final wishes?

Steffy, trying to piece things together herself, adds, “At first, I thought maybe it was a mistake, or just an old draft. But look at the date. It’s recent. He knew… he knew the end might be near.”

As the gravity of Liam’s choices sinks in, both women are left with more questions than answers. What kind of secret would drive a man to exclude his own daughter from his will? Could Liam be carrying guilt for something he’s never confessed? Did he make an impossible decision in a moment of pain?

A shared silence falls between them, heavier than any argument or blame. They’re no longer just co-parents and former rivals—they’re two mothers trying to understand the same man and protect the children they both love.

Hope finally breaks the silence. “We need to talk to him. There has to be a reason. He wouldn’t just… do this.”

But even as they prepare to confront Liam, the bigger question looms—what kind of reason could ever justify such a choice? Is Liam trying to protect someone? Or is he protecting something far more complex?

As the truth threatens to surface, the fragile peace surrounding Liam’s final days begins to crack. Whatever he’s hiding, it’s clear this isn’t just about estate planning or legal formalities.

Liam has buried something deeper—something that could fracture the foundation of trust between him, Hope, Steffy, and both of his daughters.

And when that truth is finally revealed, it could change everything we thought we knew about the man preparing to say goodbye.
