Hope Wants Flo to Work on Hope for the Future

At Forrester Creations, Brooke tells Hope it’s a nice thing she’s doing, offering Flo a job. Hope muses that she may not take it as it might be awkward with Steffy being Phoebe’s adoptive mother. Ridge and Brooke reassure Hope but also don’t want to overwhelm Flo. In the design office, Zoe flashes to making a pact with Shauna and Flo. Xander’s talking about tickets he got but realizes she has something else on her mind and urges her to open up. Zoe kisses him, but he isn’t swayed…something is different with her; something she can’t share with him. He asks, “Why?” Xander wonders if it’s to do with her father again. Zoe reveals she was thrown a major curve just when things seemed to be going her way. Xander wonders if Reese’s in trouble and she’s covering for him. Zoe admits he’s in over her head but doesn’t want to discuss it. She doesn’t want to lose Xander, who reassures her they’re solid…nothing can ever change that.
