The news about their having a baby wasn't entirely well-received, specifically from Caroline's uncle, Bill (Don Diamont), who has been Ridge's enemy for a long time. However, Caroline will choose to believe that his attendance at the board meeting won't cause problems, and she will encourage Ridge to feel the same way.

"We just leave all the negativity in the past and look forward," she says in a preview clip for the Thursday, November 5 episode.

However, getting Bill to be amicable will be a more difficult task, since he has several issues where the Forresters are concerned-and he seems very suspicious about why Ridge has been so distant and cold when it comes to his son, Thomas (Pierson Fode).

"He makes Steffy President of Forrester, but Thomas has to beg and plead to even be on the design team," Bill says to Katie (Heather Tom) in the clip.

However, when Katie continues trying to calm him down and tell him to be more open to accepting the Forresters in his life, he will admit he is never going to fully trust any members of that family.

"I will always be wary of any interaction between my family and Forresters," he says.

The Bold and the Beautiful airs Monday-Friday at 1:30 p.m. on CBS.
