This moment Steffy decided to ask Liam to touch her belly and feel the baby kicking. Liam got emotional and agreed to come to dinner that evening. After dinner Steffy again asked Liam to come back to her, but he confessed that he is still confused and left her crying. Soon Liam found out that his father got shot and he goes to the hospital where both Hope and Steffy comfort him. When Steffy noticed that Liam forgave his father she asked if he could also forgive her. Hope found out that Bill proposed to Steffy the night he was shot and reveals it to Liam. He is grateful that she is the only person that's honest with him and Steffy gets angry at Hope because she hoped that Liam could forgive her easier if he would first forgive Bill. When Bill woke up Liam confronted him, but Bill said he only wanted to give Steffy and the baby security. Steffy invited Liam over again and he asked Hope for an advice if he should go or will it give Steffy a false hope. Hope advised him to go and when he arrived he his his head on a branch and developed fake memories about being his father's shooter. Hope arrived at Liam's hotel room and saw him in a horrible condition. He believed that he shot his own father because he saw him proposing to Steffy and that's what he told Hope. This is when Hope decided that Steffy is wrong for Liam as what she did had a too big impact on his mental health. Liam confessed that he was the one who shot him and Bill got angry, but Hope demanded from Bill to keep silent about it because he owed Liam that after what he put him through. Liam also told Steffy about it. She was horrified, but still wanted him back with her and their baby. Liam felt incredibly guilty, but Hope explained to him that he was pushed by both Bill and Steffy. After that she confessed her love for him and kissed him. Soon Steffy found out that her mother was the one who shot Bill because she believed that Bill raped Steffy. Steffy told Liam that Bill remembers that he is not the shooter. Liam was ecstatic and told Hope about it. They both celebrated Liam's innocence and ended up in each other's arms. Hope asked Liam to start a new life with her. Steffy decided to sign the annulment papers that Liam gave to her shortly after finding out about her ONS with his dad. She said that she still hopes that he will want to work things out with her. She also told him that she will buy Bill's house on the cliff so it could be officially theirs. Liam took the papers, but felt torn. Liam agreed when Hope offered Liam to live in her mother's cabin. Steffy was angry when he realized that Liam will live on the same property as Hope and she confronted her, but Hope denied trying to use their crisis to her advantage. Steffy's father Ridge Forrester tried to convince Liam to go back to Steffy and he assured him that soon he will make his decision. Liam wanted to go back to his pregnant wife, but he could still see Bill when he looked at Steffy. Hope kissed Liam ad reminded him that if not for Bill's manipulations they would be a married couple however in May 2018 Liam announced that he wants to forgive Steffy and he sent her flowers. Steffy was overjoyed and told everything about it to her mother. Bill decided to scheme and made Wyatt believe that he and Steffy have an ongoing affair. Wyatt decided to inform his brother and for Liam it was the end. He informed Steffy that it's over and went straight to Hope and told her about Steffy and Bill's affair.

She spotted that Hope has an engagement ring on her finger and demanded answers. Hope said that she and Liam had enough of her and Bill's manipulations and they will finally be together. Steffy replied that she and Liam can't be engaged because she is his wife. Steffy was shocked when Hope revealed that Liam filed the annulment and she is no longer Liam's wife. She accused Hope of agreeing to marry Liam when he was angry and hurt and called her a disgrace.

Liam was shocked, but he called their baby a blessing. Liam told Steffy about Hope's pregnancy. Steffy was heartbroken and asked Liam if he is sure that the baby is his. Liam confirmed and Steffy started crying and said that they have to be there for Hope as a married couple. At first Liam nodded, but later he told Steffy that he is in no position to marry her as he still doesn't know what Hope's pregnancy means for him. Hope made it clear to Steffy that she will fight for her baby to have a full time father, but Steffy replied that Liam is with her and her pregnancy doesn't change anything. Liam told Wyatt that he is torn between two women and doesn't know which mother of his child to chose. Brooke had a talk with Liam and told him that Hope is the better woman and that she would never sleep with his father. Liam went to Forrester Creations to see Hope's fashion show and he couldn't get his eyes off her. After the fashion show they hugged and Bill had a photo of this moment so he went to inform Steffy about it. Bill told her that Liam always wanted Hope and if not for their manipulations they would be together. Steffy couldn't believe her eyes when she saw the photo so she ran straight to Forrester Creations. Meanwhile Hope was changing in the dressing room when Liam walked in on her. After a second Liam ran straight at Hope and started kissing her passionately. Steffy found the two and was livid. Liam tried to calm her down but she ran off after yelling at the both of them. Hope encouraged Liam to go after Steffy and make sure that she's ok. Liam was looking for Steffy at home, but she wasn't there. When she finally arrived she had Bill's sword necklace on and told Liam that she will marry his father. Liam said that Steffy need to forgive him, but she didn't want to.

When Hope saw Taylor yelling at Brooke and saying that she hates her more than anyone else in the world Hope got scared for her mother safety and intervened. Liam spoke to Steffy and told her that he is afraid that Taylor shouldn't be around kids as she's unstable. Steffy managed to convince Liam that there is nothing to worry about, but Hope told her that she doesn't want Taylor around Beth. Steffy was defending her mother and refused to accept Hope's request.

Hope said to Liam that her doctor gave her a heads up when she asked if she can travel and she wanted them to go on a baby moon to the Catalina island. Hope went to the airport sooner as Kelly had a fever so Liam had to visit her first. Hope arrived at the island, but Liam wasn't able to get to her because the weather suddenly changed. Hope was horrified when her water broke and she realized that she will be giving birth prematurely on and island during a storm. Hope arrived at the only open clinic where Reese was the only doctor. During labor Hope passed out and Reese remembered Taylor's words about Steffy wanting to adopt a baby. He came up with a plan to exchange Hope's healthy baby with a dead baby of a woman that gave birth at the hospital shortly before Hope arrived there. He decided to do it because he had a gambling debt and gagsters wanted to hurt his daughter Zoe Buckingham. Bill helped Liam, Brooke and Ridge to get to the island by using his private jet. Hope woke up and saw Liam. At first she was happy and believed that their daughter is alive. Liam told Hope that their baby is dead and Hope demanded to see Beth. Reese brought the dead baby to Hope and she held it and cried. Liam told Ridge, Brooke and Bill that nobody is more fit to be a mother than Hope and he didn't understand why it had to happen to her. Hope was absolutely heartbroken and inconsolable. She was blaming herself for losing yet another baby and said that she can't get pregnant again. Liam tried to comfort her, but it was impossible.
Steffy unknowingly adopting Hope and Liam's baby[]
Reese informed Taylor that there is a baby that Steffy can adopt. He told her the legal fees are 250k. Taylor is a bit surprised by the amount, but decides to give it a try. Steffy went to see the baby and instantly fell in love with her. Reese asked his old friend from Vegas to play the baby's mother. Taylor paid for the baby and Reese prepared fake documents. Steffy invited Liam to met her new baby that she named Phoebe and he is instantly drawn to her. When Hope met her she also felt the same way and she constantly wanted to hold her. Steffy told Liam that he will be Phoebe's father and wanted them to bond, but at the same time she was a bit creeped out by how much Hope depends on her adoptive daughter and told Liam that it isn't healthy. When Steffy said that she is leaving LA to spend some time with Paris with the girls Hope was crushed as she didn't want Phoebe to go, but Steffy said that it's time for Hope and Liam to work on their marriage and that they needed that time alone. Hope met Flo Fulton who was the one that was pretending to be the biological mother of Hope's daughter. She felt terrible when she saw Hope and how much she suffers. Soon Hope found out that Flo is her cousin as she is Storm Logan's daughter that he didn't know about. Flo felt town between telling the truth to Hope or telling her everything, but she was scared to lose her new found family, freedom and a chance with her high school love Wyatt Spencer.

Shorty before Steffy's trip to Paris she and her mother find out that the mother of Thomas's son Douglas has died. Thomas and Douglas arrived in LA and Taylor immediately noticed that Hope is great in consoling her grandson. She shared with her ex husband Ridge that their son should be with Hope and their daughter with Liam, but Ridge didn't find this idea to be good. Thomas, who once was in love with Hope soon realized that his feelings for her never died and he wanted Hope to become his sons new mother. When Hope told Liam to annul their marriage and go be with Steffy and the girls because the kids need him Thomas tried to use it to his advantage, but Liam fought to remain with his wife. He even organized a romantic dinner and they made love. Thomas tried every trick in the book. He wrote a fake letter from Caroline where she expressed how she hopes that if she's gone Douglas will have a mother. He constantly used his son to manipulate Hope and play on her motherly instincts. Liam saw it and he was crushed when Hope didn't see it too. What made things worse is that Hope sent Liam to live with Steffy and the girls because she wanted him to be a father to the girls. Hope decided that she will force herself to be with Thomas just to give Phoebe and Beth a father and to give Douglas a mother putting her own needs last. Thomas made things between Hope and Liam even more complicated when he drugged Liam which led to him and Steffy having sex. When Liam woke up from his night of passion with his ex wife he immediately ran to Hope and explained everything to her. Hope was crushed and it only speeded her decision to let Liam go the children's well being. The worst part of this story was that Thomas found out that Hope's and Liam's baby is alive before manipulating the situation and instead of telling them about it he started threatening others to keep quiet about the whole thing. He wanted the truth to never come out so badly that when he realized that Hope's friend Emma Barber found out and wanted to tell Hope he followed her with his car and tailgated her which resulted in Emma's death. Thomas didn't feel pity for her and smiled when he saw that she's dead. He also blamed her for her tragic fate. Hope, who had no idea what was happening really planned to become his wife. Soon Thomas was horrified when his son overheard him talking about Beth being alive so he started to force his own son to lie and was abusive towards him on multiple occasions. Douglas did what his father told him to do, but felt really bad about it. When Hope wasn't ready to marry Thomas he terrified Douglas with fake ghosts. When Douglas was screaming Hope went to hug him and she made the decision to hurry and marry Douglas's father to be a full time mother to a boy that clearly needed her.
Hope and Thomas get married[]
When Liam and Steffy heard that Hope and Thomas are about to get married they had very different reactions. Steffy was happy for her brother while Liam hated it. Brooke agreed with Liam that her daughter is making a huge mistake. Flo Logan, Hope's cousin was horrified when she realized that because of her lies Hope will marry Thomas. She knew how dangerous he is because he threatened her when she said that she'll tell Hope about Beth. Flo wanted to reveal the truth, but eventually she was again to scared. During Thomas and Hope's wedding ceremony Phoebe crawled to Hope's feet and called her mamma multiple times like she would know that she is her real mother. Hope became very emotional. Thomas and Hope married, but she was unable to have sex with him even during their wedding night. Liam called Hope and asked her about the wedding night. Hope revealed that they didn't consummate which relieved Liam. He said that he believed that they will be together again. Thomas was getting increasingly impatient with Hope's lack of interesting in him. He and Hope left Douglas at Steffy's and went to a hotel for a romantic get away. Thomas kissed Hope, but she didn't seem to like it. She tried to act like a wife, but it was hard for her. Hope was honest with Thomas and explained her feelings for Liam, but he told her to move on and accept the life she has with him.
Hope and Liam get Beth back[]
When Hope and Thomas were at their "romantic getaway" at the hotel Douglas spoke to Liam in Steffy's cliff house. He told him that Beth is alive and that he knows it from daddy. At first Liam was confused, but decided to call the doctor that was supposed to be Flo's doctor. The doctor said that they didn't have a patient that goes by this name and that when Flo supposedly gave birth she wasn't even working. Liam then realized that Douglas said the truth and that the adoption documents are fake. Liam told everything to Steffy, but she was in denial and believed that it was just a mistake however Liam was certain that Phoebe is Beth at that point and he ran to the nursery to take her in his arms. He cried as he said that he is her "Dadda". Steffy watched them with concern. She said that it's not Beth, but Phoebe. Douglas was really happy to see Liam so glad to get his daughter back. Meanwhile Hope was at the hotel with Thomas watching Beth's ultrasound photo and Flo decided to tell the truth to Wyatt. When she tried Liam arrived at his home and demanded from Flo to admit what she did. Flo confirmed that she lied about being the baby's mother and that the baby is in fact Beth. Flo told Liam who knew and that she tried to say the truth many times and that Thomas threatened her that if she will tell the truth she'll end up dead like Emma. When Liam was there Thomas called her because Steffy told about Liam's discovery and Flo put him on speakers. Liam and Wyatt heard that Thomas threatened Flo and that he expected her to help him to continue lying. Liam heard Pamela Douglas's voice and they realized that Thomas took Hope to Forrester Creations as he was scared that Liam will show up at the hotel. Liam immediately drove there and managed to arrive on time before the helicopter that Thomas has organized was able to arrive. Liam locked himself with Hope in the office and started to explain to her the whole story. Hope couldn't believe what she was hearing. Thomas destroyed the door, punched Liam and used force to take Hope to the roof. Hope begged Thomas to explain, but he continued lying through the tears. Liam managed to get to them and started to fight with Thomas. Eventually Liam got the upper hand and when he held Thomas down he forced him to confess. When Thomas couldn't say a word Hope realized that it's really the truth. Thomas managed to hit Liam and escaped. Hope and Liam cried tears of joy in each others arms. The two went to Steffy's house and Liam told the babysitter that she can go. When they were alone with Beth Liam brought her to Hope and she called her "mamma" once again. Hope and Liam shared a romantic kiss while holding their baby. Hope wanted to know everything that happened and Liam told her the whole story about the baby switch. Hope was shocked that her cousin, Zoe Buckingham and Xander Avant knew about it all and didn't tell her for so long. She was even more shocked when she found out that her friend Emma Barber wanted to tell her, but she died when Thomas followed her with his car. Steffy and Kelly arrived back home and Liam's ex wife was surprised to see Hope. Hope and Liam didn't know how to tell Steffy the truth, but she noticed that something changed in the way that Hope is holding her adoptive daughter so she asked Hope to put her daughter down. Hope put her in the crib and Steffy started saying that Hope was supposed to be on her honeymoon with Thomas and that Liam ran out to see Flo. Liam confirmed that he saw her and that Flo admitted that she's not the birth mother. Steffy wanted to call Flo and Carter to take legal action, but Liam stopped her. Liam tried to explain everything to Steffy, but she said that she has enough of Liam's crazy theories. Hope said that she's very sorry, but the baby Steffy adopted was stolen. Steffy started crying and felt sick when she heard that Reese stole someone else's baby and asked if they know who the birth mother is. She tried to call Carter again, but Liam asked her to talk first. Liam put Beth into Hope's arms and she told Steffy that she has been an amazing adoptive mother. Steffy replied that she is her mother even if the papers were fabricated as their relationship is real. Hope asked if Steffy remembers that she was the patient of the man that sold the child to her mother. Hope started to describe Beth's birth in Catalina and how Reese stole their child and put another patients dead baby in her arms. Liam also informed Steffy that her brother Thomas knew about it. Steffy was in denial. Hope said that she understands that it's a shock for her, but she can help her with Beth because at this point she knows her daughter more than her. Liam assured Steffy that Taylor isn't responsible and Reese used her too. Steffy told Hope that she's not taking the baby home and said that she's Phoebe. Hope was shocked. Hope reminded that Beth was stolen from her, but Steffy asked if she wants to steal her child now. Hope said that she is grateful for the care she has given to her daughter, but she has to go with her parents. Steffy replied that she knows that she has been through, but they need to think about Phoebe. Hope protested and said that her name is Beth. She explained that she would never try to erase her from Beth's life and she could help with the transition. Steffy said that she's not her babysitter, but her mom. Hope said "You are not her babysitter and I am not your surrogate". Steffy said that al she knows is that she and Kelly love Phoebe and she needs to stay with them and Hope needs to understand what she's asking for. Hope replied that she's not asking. Steffy told Liam that they were like a family and now he just walks away. She demanded from him to tell Hope that she's wrong. Liam told Steffy that he and Hope are her parents and they can work things out, but Hope said that it's time for her to be Beth again. Brooke and Ridge arrived at Steffy's home. Ridge started comforting Steffy and Brooke ran to Hope and her granddaughter. Steffy said once again that there is no way Hope is taking her daughter home. Brooke reminded Steffy that there was nothing legal about the adoption, but Steffy said that Phoebe doesn't know it and that the only thing she knows is her, Kelly and their home. Broke assured her that as Liam's daughter she will continue knowing Steffy's home and spend time with her sister. Brooke asked what is Steffy's suggesting. Steffy suggested that Hope could be "a kind of a mother" and help raising her without taking her away. Hope said again that she's extremely grateful to Steffy for everything, but it's time for Beth to come home. Hope told Steffy to not dare to stop her from taking Beth. In the end Steffy accepted that she is going to lose the child she adopted and she collapsed in her father's arms as she saw Hope and Liam leaving with Beth.
Steffy and Thomas scheming to break Hope and Liam up[]
Hope and Liam were living in the cabin with Douglas and Beth and were a couple again. Thomas still wanted to be with Hope despite her annulling their marriage. Steffy also thought that she might get Liam back. She complained about Hope not calling her to invite her to see Beth and sent heart emojis to Liam. Hope realized what was going on and went to confront Steffy about it. The Forrester girl replied that it's Liam's choice who he will choose despite Liam already being committed to Hope. Soon the two Forrester siblings were able to use Hope and Liam's disagreement about Douglas to their advantage. Liam didn't want Hope to see Thomas even at work and he wasn't sure if taking care of Douglas full time was a good thing. Hope disagreed with Liam and when he asked her to stop cooperating with Thomas and co-parenting Douglas with him she refused. Liam was angry and went to Steffy's home where he spent the night. In the morning Liam was still at Steffy's. Thomas found out that Hope is going to the cliff house and he called Steffy asking her to kiss Liam when he will give her a signal so Hope can see it. Thomas convinced his sister by telling her that she could have Liam again. Steffy kissed Liam when her phone rang and Hope witnesses it. Thomas was lurking in the bushes when Hope cried. The Logan woman decided to leave Liam and he ended up living at Steffy's home again where the two of them shares one more kiss. After that kiss Liam didn't make any other moves on Steffy and he made it clear that he misses Hope and Beth. Liam's father told him that Steffy is the right woman for him, but it didn't convince him to move on and he continued to hope for a new chance with Beth's mother. Hope's mother also agreed that Liam and her daughter need to get back together and she had the same opinion about Thomas as her ex son in law. Thomas got engaged to Zoe Buckingham in order to scare Douglas that Hope won't be his mommy again. He hopes that this way Hope will go back to him to satisfy his sons needs. Both Liam and Brooke were sure that Thomas is still plotting and they were sure that he is using the Buckingham girl to get with Hope. Liam pleaded with Hope to not let Thomas ruin their relationship, but she replied that it was his waffling that ruined them. Steffy, seeing that Liam isn't moving on after months of living with her decided it's time to tell him the truth about the staged kiss. She told him the whole truth about how Thomas convinced her to work with him on breaking him and Hope up. Next Steffy and Liam both told Hope about it. While Liam blamed only Thomas Hope made it clear that also Steffy manipulated them more than once and blamed the both of them. Liam apologized to Hope for giving her an ultimatum in the past and convinced her to get back with him. The two were engaged again after Liam's proposal. Soon Hope, Liam and Steffy cooperated to uncover Thomas's latest scheme. Hope spoke to Zoe about it and she didn't believe that Thomas is using her however she was proven wrong when Hope appeared in a wedding dress during their wedding and Thomas wanted to leave Zoe right there and then to start his life with the Logan girl. Zoe and the whole family were very disappointed in Thomas. The humiliated young Forrester left the wedding and Hope and Liam went home with Douglas. Liam convinced Douglas to prepare t-shirt for the bride and groom. The boy also convinced Hope to marry his new step father. Hope and Liam were very happy and decided to make vows in the cabin in front of Douglas and their daughter Beth. Next day they made it legal and they were officially married again.
Liam and Hope helping Steffy[]
Steffy was heartbroken when Liam became Hope's husband again as in her head they had something special when Hope and Liam were apart. Liam assured her that he will always be there for her and Kelly, but she told him that he has another family so he won't be able to keep his word. Liam convinced Steffy that he will take care of Kelly and asked his ex wife to go out and enjoy herself. Steffy took the offer and when she was riding her motorcycle Bill Spencer Jr. accidentally hit her with his car. Steffy was rushed to the hospital where she met her doctor Finn Finnegan and the two developed an instant mutual crush. Hope and Liam took care of Kelly when Steffy was at the hospital. When the Forrester girl came back home she wanted her daughter back at home and didn't want her to stay with her father and step mother despite the pain she was in. Finnegan gave her painkillers and the bottle soon finishes. She asked for a re-fill, but he refused as there kind of pills are dangerous to use for a long time. Steffy was in physical and emotional pain. Each time she looked at the photo of her and Liam that was hanging on her wall her psychical pain worsened. Vincent Walker gave Steffy pills as a secret gift, but he made more harm than good. Steffy took the pills and she passed out on the couch. Liam came to see Kelly and he stopped Steffy laying unconscious. After managing to wake her up he confronted her. Steffy lied to him, but he found the empty bottle and realized that his ex wife is getting high. He took their daughter without listening to Steffy's plead to not take her away. Steffy took her car keys and decided to drive after Liam. When she arrived to her step mother and father's home where Liam took Kelly she started telling everyone off. She accused Hope of stealing Liam and Beth from her and asked her if now she wants to steal Kelly. At one point she started threatening people with a knife. Steffy's father Ridge arrived at the scene and realized that his daughter needs help. She was furious when her father asked Hope and Liam to take care of Kelly instead convincing them to give her back. Kelly was with her step parents until her mother could get out of rehab where she got better with the help of Finn.
Liam's misunderstanding about Hope and cheating with Steffy[]
Liam didn't like the fact that Steffy and Finn became a couple because in his head Finn was the one that prescribed her the pills and was responsible for her health problems. To make things worse for Spencer Thomas still wanted to be with Hope and even told Liam that the Logan woman really wants to be with him. Steffy tried to convince Liam that her brother has changed, but he didn't buy it. One day Hope and Douglas were invited for dinner to Thomas's apartment. Hope left and forgot her phone. Liam saw Hope's location and saw it was Thomas's place so he went there. He didn't know that Thomas took a mannequin that looked like Hope from Forrester Creations and had full blown conversations with it. When Liam opened the door to Thomas's apartment he saw Thomas and the mannequin in a dark room. They were kissing which deeply shocked Liam. He ran straight to Steffy and vented about Hope's betrayal. The two started drinking alcohol and Liam hinted that maybe it's not over between him and her. Liam and Steffy kissed and ended up cheating on Hope and Finn. In the morning Liam was still angry about Hope and Thomas's kiss. Hope went to Thomas place and saw him in a terrible condition. She also saw the mannequin and realized that in Thomas's mind the doll talks to him. Hope assured Thomas that she will help him. He cried and said that he really loves her and collapsed. Hope called the ambulance. Thomas has been rushed to the hospital and Liam showed up at Thomas's apartment for a confrontation. He started to accuse Hope of betraying him and she showed him the doll Thomas was kissing. Liam realized that he blamed Hope for nothing. Liam went to the hospital where he was Steffy and told her about Thomas's delusions and his relationship with a mannequin that looks like Hope. Steffy didn't want to listen as it was hard for her to stomach that her brother lost her mind. She was annoyed when she realized that Liam is staying with Hope and she forbid him from saying anything to Hope and Finn. It came out that Thomas was delusional because few weeks prior he his his head on a desk. He had to undergo a hard operation and managed to be saved. Liam felt guilty for keeping a dirty secret from his wife, but Steffy continuously convinced him to keep quiet to not destroy their relationships. One day also she realized that their one night stand needs to be revealed when she took a pregnancy test and it was positive. When Liam heard that Steffy is pregnant he hoped that the baby is Finn's. Steffy's boyfriend blamed Liam for the whole thing while Hope blamed both Liam and Steffy. Steffy made a paternity test and it came out that Liam is the father of the baby. Hope ran off from laboratory and Finn decided to stay with Steffy anyway. Thankfully soon it came to light that Thomas's friend Vincent Walker faked the results and Finn was really the father.
Liam behind bars[]
Hope and Liam were slowly getting closer again after the whole chaos with the paternity however everything went downhill when Liam and Bill were driving the car at night and Vincent Walker jumped in front of their car. Liam ran out of the car and tried to help Vinny, but he died in his arms. Liam was overwhelmed and fainted. Bill used it and took his unconscious son to the car. Liam woke up at his father's home and was informed that everything is taken care of. The young Spencer man was furious with his father, but it was too late and if he would call the police Bill would also end up in jail. Liam stayed quiet for some time, but it was killing him so he told Hope the truth. She comforted him and they both decided that they need to tell the truth. Liam didn't want to tell the police about his father's crime, but Hope didn't want Liam to pay for the crime he didn't commit and told the police about her father in law. Both Liam and Bill ended up in jail and Justin Barber became their lawyer. They believed that Justin wants to help him, but he secretly hoped for them to remain in jail so he could take control of Spencer Publications. One day Thomas Forrester unblocked his deceased friend's number and then he received a video massage from him in which Vincent said that he is doing this for him so Hope would leave Liam and be with him. On the video Vinny jumped in front of Liam's car. Thomas contemplated if he should delete the video or not, but eventually he decided to do the right thing and went to Liam and Bill's lawyer with the video evidence. Justin hit Thomas on the head and locked him in the Spencer building basement where nobody could hear him. Nobody could find Thomas and Hope noticed that Justin has his phone so she went looking for him. She found him and saved him and when Thomas told everything to the police Liam and Bill were released. Hope and Liam were happy to be reunited and Justin was fired from Spencer Publications.
Problems with Deacon and Steffy's partial amnesia[]
When Liam learned that Hope was secretly writing letters to her father Deacon Sharpe he was less than thrilled. Hope tried to convince Liam that her father needs to get a chance, but Liam didn't trust her father in law who just left jail for trying to murder Quinn Fuller. Deacon didn't only want to be close to Hope, but to get her married mother back. One day Deacon and Brooke shared a kiss, but it happened because Brooke was drunk after Sheila Carter changed the labels on champagne. When Brooke's husband Ridge Forrester found out and left both Hope and Liam were supporting Brooke. Soon everyone was shocked when they found out that Steffy Forrester and her husband Finn Finnegan got shot. Steffy was in a coma and Finn was dead. Naturally Hope and Liam rushed to the hospital and when Steffy woke up she didn't remember Finn and the son she had with him and in her memory she was still married to Liam and the only child she has was her daughter Kelly Spencer. Steffy's mother Taylor Hayes said that Liam has to go along with it because Steffy is too weak to hear the truth. Hope tried to accept it and went along with it, but it was hard for her to witness her husband acting like he would still be Steffy's husband. Hope's mother Brooke Logan was very displeased with the situation and she argued with Taylor about it. At first Bridget Forrester that was Steffy's doctor, said that Steffy might be too fragile to find the truth out, but after making further test she said that she's strong enough. Liam and Steffy's family were present when she found out the truth about her husband. Steffy was crushed and needed Liam's support. Hope was supportive, but also worried. Thomas Forrester, who was still obviously in love with Hope tried to put doubts in her head, but she defended her husband. One day Steffy asked Liam to stay with her and he fell asleep on the couch. Hope was worried, but forgave Liam. When Steffy took her children to Europe Hope and Liam were able to forget about the previous stress and they shared many romantic moments together.
