'The Bold and the Beautiful': Eric picks the new CEO, Ridge and Caroline's affair exposed, Caroline confronts Ridge

In "The Bold and the Beautiful" last week, it ended with an indication that something big will happen when the TV show returns this week. Gathering the Forrester Creations crew together in a boardroom spells disaster and secrets are revealed.

Last Friday, Eric Forrester finally made the decision on who will be the next CEO for Forrester Creations. He appointed Ridge as his successor. But Maya is one bitter person and would not delight in Ridge's success. When Eric made the announcement, Maya stood up and exposed Ridge and Caroline's affair. That's when hell broke loose.

According to Celeb Dirty Laundry, Eric is not very happy about the affair and he yells at Ridge saying that Rick is his own flesh and blood. If he hurts him, he hurts Eric as well. Meanwhile, Hope isn't too happy about the news too. She doesn't like what Caroline did to her half-brother Rick. Hope believes that Caroline and Rick's marriage is done with after what was revealed.

Also, Rick told Caroline that Ridge was just using her to get ahead on the CEO position for Forrester Creations. Caroline may not have seen it, but Rick as well as "The Bold and the Beautiful" fans have thought about it. Now, Caroline starts to wonder if Ridge really cared for her or was it all for show?

According to the spoilers, Caroline will confront Ridge and say "Rick thinks you're conning me, is it true?" Ridge doesn't give a straight answer. Ridge doesn't confirm nor deny what his motives were for being close to Caroline, but he did say something.

"I should have stopped this before it went too far," Ridge said. Could this mean that he is using Caroline all along? How would Caroline feel about this? Tune in to "The Bold and the Beautiful" this week on CBS.
