CBS's The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers indicate that Bill faces a challenging dilemma: whether to trust Poppy or not. Poppy, in an uncompromising stance, refuses to admit to the police that she killed Tom and Hollis. Her situation worsens when the police discover Tom's backpack in her apartment. Despite her vehement denial of the crime, Poppy remains in custody. This predicament leaves Bill in a quandary, as he struggles to reconcile his perception of Poppy's character with the mounting evidence against her. He genuinely wants to believe in her innocence, but the overwhelming evidence complicates his feelings.
Adding to the complexity of the situation, another shocking revelation diverts Bill's attention: Luna is not his daughter. Despite previous DNA results indicating a paternal connection, a subsequent test confirms that Luna is definitely not Bill's offspring. This unexpected twist prompts Bill to visit Poppy in prison to inform her of the news. Bill harbors a suspicion that Poppy might have manipulated the initial DNA test results, but her reaction significantly dispels this notion, revealing that she, too, was deceived.
Pressured by the need to identify the mastermind behind this deception, Bill reevaluates the situation. If Poppy is innocent of tampering with the DNA results, Luna emerges as the prime suspect. It becomes apparent that Luna obtained a fake test result and swapped it with the genuine one from Lee. Despite these deceptive actions, Bill makes a crucial decision: to continue trusting Poppy and loving Luna. This decision brings Poppy some solace while she is incarcerated; she won't have to worry excessively about Luna's well-being, as Bill commits to taking care of her like his own daughter, even if she isn't biologically his.
Bill holds onto the hope that Poppy's innocence will eventually be proven, and she will be released from prison. However, Luna's machinations are far from over. Baker is poised to gather additional evidence against Poppy, covertly supplied by Luna, who harbors a sinister motive to keep Poppy imprisoned and burdened with the consequences that should have been Luna's to bear.
