"Days Of Our Lives" soap recap

On Tuesday, Aiden invited Rafe and Hope to the station to interrogate them about Stefano’s murder. Aiden left for a bit to take a call. While he’s gone, Hope was in a state, worrying that their bloody secret would soon be exposed. Aiden returned and said he’s leaving the DiMera file closed. Hope and Rafe reckoned they’re off the hook. However, it seemed that Aiden planted a bug in the interrogation room, capturing Hope’s confession.

Elsewhere, Chloe and Philip breathed a sigh of relief when Dr Wright revealed that Deimos is not the father of Chloe’s baby. They thought Kate did her part, as she promised. However, they were shocked when Kate turned up and shared what happened to her. If the paternity test results were not tampered, it meant someone else is the father. Chloe said she’s just as surprised as everyone else. Philip demanded to know the truth, but Chloe has no clue. Feeling like a fool, he stalked off.
