Grace Buckingham is turning into an older version of her eldest daughter, Zoe. She saw Paris making out with Carter and has confronted him. Let’s say it’s not pretty. She is determined to ensure her youngest child ends up with Zende, a rich, successful, and über-handsome fashion designer. Hmm. Where have we heard THAT one before?
We’re not going to through Steffy, Hope, and Liam into this as it has zero to do with them. Anyway, Grace knows about Zoe’s history with Carter and how he broke her heart. While she does her best to hide it, she hates his guts. That is putting it lightly. Wait, there is no putting it “lightly.”
Grace is aware of Carter’s affair with Quinn and how it affected Zoe. Though, if you ask us, she had it coming when she went after Zende at the same time, thinking the hunky designer could be her rebound if things fell apart with Carter. While we understand she is trying to protect her daughters, she needs to butt out! Let Paris make the mistakes and learn when it goes up in a smouldering wreck.
Carter Sets Grace Straight About His Relationship With Zoe
When Grace confronts Carter over Paris kissing him, he tells her that his affair with Quinn didn’t happen during his engagement with Zoe. He tells her that she was playing him while attempting to get Zende to wait for her if her pending marriage to Carter didn’t work out.
Grace recoiling then recovering and standing her ground is scary to watch. It shows her commitment to her daughters, but is she willing to destroy her relationship with Paris to ensure she gets a rich man? Let’s pray she doesn’t, as it will make her appear exactly like Zoe, desperate for status. After all, she married a man who stole a woman’s baby, passed a dead one off as her child, and then sold said living child to Steffy for a quarter of a million dollars.
Zoe caused her own engagement to fall apart by going after another man. Oh, and she was jealous that Zende was immediately drawn to Paris and not her.
Anywho, Grace doesn’t know the real Carter. She doesn’t want to see that her daughter is guilty of anything. As the lawyer says, Grace doesn’t know him and only assumes him to be a serial cheater when he’s not. He got caught up in the end of his engagement and what Zoe did to him. However, he is not the one who cheated. Quinn was.
Grace doesn’t want to see it.
