James and I have long thought Stefano would gladly keep Nicole’s secret. After all, Nicole actually secured the DiMera heir. If Nicole had not done her dastardly deed, Sami would have made sure the DiMera family never had contact with that child. That scores big points in Papa Stefano’s world. So… will he keep Nicole’s secret? Did she actually prove herself loyal and a true DiMera? Stefano is smart enough to know Nicole did this all for her own selfish reasons. But will he feel that the end justifies the means? Will having Sydney in the DiMera claws be more important than the duplicity?
