Ridge and his lousy excuse

Another day of Ridge blabbing about, “Well, at least Carter felt guilty, unlike Hope…” And once again I have to mention that after the take-over, he spoke gently to Carter, reassured him of his friendship and love. But when it comes to Hope—the woman he’s known since birth, the one he raised and once called his daughter—he offered nothing but hatred, calling her names like “slut” and “whore.”
She’s been bullied and hurt countless times by his beloved spawns, in ways Carter never had to experience. Can someone please remind this Neanderthal of that? He was even ready to go after Zende just for having a fair opinion of Hope and acknowledging how wrong it is that she’s the only one paying for a plan Carter came up with.
