He says he doesn't know about that because Eric accepted her even when Marcus showed up. She says she knows for a fact that if her Dad thought Donna was cheating that the mariage would be over.
She says her Dad will be traveling a lot & Donna will need some company.
He says with me? She says yes he could spend time with her & get evidance of an affair.

She thinks she has what she needs to move on & how it's true that if you love something set it free, she picks up the flowers & holds them & says in her head she will love Bridget & Nick both until her dying day.

7/17/08
Felicia & Owen are on the roof at Forrester & Felicia wants to know if anything happened last night when Owen took Donna home because Eric changed plans & is on his way back.
Owen said nothing happened except Donna opened up to him, he also said he can tell Donna loves Eric a lot even after all the crap the family puts her through.
He goes on to say Donna was upset about the way things went with Eric leaving.
Felicia is happy that Donna is disenchanted & she says Donna is not the victim here. Owen says shes not a villian either.
Felicia says he hasn't been in town long enough to know & he says he can be objective about it. He also says he doesn't know if the plan will work because Donna hasn't given hium a second look.

Felicia says not yet, he says he knows when a women is intrested, Felicia says that Donna is married & has to be discrete, she can't just jump his muscles.(LOL) She tell him to make an opportunity, he says he can't create it out of thin air. He says she is not a bad person as evidanced by the way she took Marcus in.
Felicia said Donna had to because she needed another person
on her side & she asks if she should add Owen to the list too.
He says he see's Donna one way & the Forrester kids see her another. Felicia tells him he wont see a red cent if he doesn't do his job.
He says he only gets paid if Donna is the type of person they think she is & he dosn't think she is that way.
Feclica says 2 sec. with Donna & guys go gaga. It happened with her Dad & brother.
She says her Mom is in pain & the company is faultering every day the they are together. She goes on to say it has to end & if he can't help her she will find another way.
She wants her Dad to be happy he says donna & Eric are happy & that he can't do what she wants.
She says you have the hots for her he says she loves your dad & vyou better accept it.

Ridge is at the office with Donna & Brooke, he asks Donna why his Dad is comming back so soon.
She says she doen't know & he tells her if the buyers were happy then Eric would be thrilled to tell Donna all about it.
She tells Ridge Eric will be home so & to ask him when he gets there. She also says if it didn't go well you can't blame me. He tells her that he didn't tell his Dad not to take her, she says no but he gave his Dad a million reasons not to.
Brooke tells her that it was a prudent decision, then Eric walks in.
Donna goes to him, everybody wants to knowwhat happened, Eric says he didn't get as many orders as he would have liked because the buyers wouldn't make any large orders.
Ridge feels the trip was a bust, Donna tells Ridge that he can't expect a blockbuster every time because trends change.
She says Ridge is blaming everything on her but Ridge has not said a word yet. Eric chimes in & tells Ridge he can't blame Donna for everything wrong in the company.
Ridge finally gets to speak & says to his dad that the sales have consistantly drop ever since he married Donna.
He says he doesn't want to argue about it because it's not worth it when it can be so easily solved.
Eric wants to know the solution, Ridge tells him that he & Brooke are getting married , everyone is happy , they hug & shake hands. Eric asks how that will help & wants to know if they will have ANOTHER big public wedding.
Ridge says maybe so & he is calling an emergancy board meeting tomorrow to ask Eric to turn control of the company to him & Brooke.
Eric says they are back to square one & Ridge is look for a way to kick him out.
Ridge says he is trying to save the company, Eric sarcastically thanks him for the warning about the ambush thats coming.
Brooke says it's not an ambush, Ridge says think of it as a passing of the tourch, Brooke says from one fasion couple to another.
Donna says from Eric & Steph to you & Ridge.
Brooke says yes they were an icon & set the standereds.
Donna says" ..standards that Steph accused you of stealing & now all the sudden your the standards???"
Brooke says that people know her & Ridge & they will generate a lot of excitment.
Ridge says it's more than a marketing issue , the good publicity will help but they need a drastic change now because trhe longer they wait the harder it will be to turn it around.
Donna runs to Eric & tells him not to let Ridge make him feel inaduquate or ashamed of their relationship.
Ridge says Eric knows it's made an impact after talking to the buyers.
Donna says it's a period of transition, Ridge tells her they don't have time for "her" transition with this economy they have to be at the top of the game with every collection.
He says to Eric that they have to stop the downward spiral before it's to late & he hands papers to Eric that when signed will give the company to Ridge & Brooke.
He tells his Dad that they will tell the press it is a wedding gift that will bring in the new era of Forrester fasions.
Donna tells him he can't force eric to sign, Brooke says it for the best & they will take care of everyone & every thing.
Donna says she has done her research & that cost have gone up, she says it's not fair to blame it on her, she loves Eric more than the company unlike Ridge.
Eric says it's not fair so he & Ridge will settle it by themselves now.

Outside Donna lays into Brooke & can't beleive she is going along with Ridge. & wants her to talk Ridge out of it.
Brooke says she can't because she helped him come up with it. She says that reasearch shows Donna has had a big affect on the company & this will give Eric a way to retire with diginity & keep people from talking about Donna.
Donna tells her Eric will not go for it & that Brooke is being selfish as always.

Eric is disapointed & Ridge says he will be too if Eric doesn't sign.

Eric says you tried it before, Ridge says this time it will happen.
Eric gets a call from a buyer cutting their order in half, Ridge tells him it will be ok because he & Brooke will fix
it. He riminds him how they have worked together & how much he loved it but he said Ridge would have it all some day & now it's time for a change.
He tell his Dad he can go be with Donna & that he & Brooke will take care of everything.
Eric says OK, Ridge hugs him thanks him & says I wont let you down.(Eric has not signed yet)

I had to edit this because it accidently got sent before I finished.
