Ivy was in her office at Forrester working on her designs. She felt her tummy and thoughts of a life with Liam and baby flooded her mind. But her dream was shattered when Steffy showed up in her office.

"Ivy, I won't let you do it!" Steffy railed at her.

"Do what?" Ivy said innocently.

"Take Liam from me!" Steffy continued her rant at Ivy. "Geez, I can't believe you're using the oldest trick in the book to take Liam from me!"

"What do you mean?" Ivy questioned her.

"Pregnant?! Really, Ivy! Do you really think Liam will leave me because you're pregnant!"

"Well, Liam knows the truth and he said he had to think about things."

"Oh, he has to think about things alright!"

"Whatever do you mean?"

"It just so happens that I'm pregnant too!" Steffy informed her.

Ivy just looked at her in disbelief, "No, you can't be!"

"Oh, yes, Ivy, I am pregnant. So let's see who Liam chooses now!" Steffy gloated as she turned on her heel and left Ivy with doubts.

"Steffy pregnant too?" Ivy thought. "That can't be."

Ivy suddenly felt sick to her stomach and it wasn't the morning sickness either.




Meanwhile, at Big Bear, Liam arrived at the Forrester cabin Eric had gladly given the keys to him. Liam needed this time alone to decide who he should be with: he just couldn't believe both Ivy and Steffy were both pregnant.

Liam decided a hike just might clear his mind and help him make his decision. So he packed a bag and headed for the trail he loved most.



The scenery of the mountains and cool brisk air made Liam feel at ease but it didn't help his conflicted feelings about Steffy and Ivy. He was in still in doubt. He loved both Ivy and Steffy. The question was, who did he love more?'




But Liam's decision would have to be put on hold when he heard a scream nearby. Quick on his feet, Liam followed the sound to the lake to find someone obviously in distress drowning in the lake. Liam jumped in without thinking and swam out to the figure. When Liam got closer to the figure, he could see it was a woman drowning. Liam got to the woman and managed to pull the woman to land only to discover it was Hope!

After performing life-saving techniques on Hope, for several seconds, Hope finally gasped a breath.

"Liam!" Hope exclaimed, to a stunned Liam.
