Things between Paulina Price and Abe Carver are going further than anyone could have imagined.

The couple, once considered the epitome of “love and justice” in Salem, are now locked in a fierce power struggle, where work and emotions are intertwined and their love is torn apart.

The incident began when Paulina supported the plan to have Theo Carver – Abe’s son – take on a new executive position at DiMera Enterprises.

But Abe, being cautious by nature, objected.

He was worried that this would drag Theo into Salem’s political vortex, where every move was a trade-off.

In the Carver’s living room, viewers witnessed one of the most impressive “argument” scenes this season. Paulina shouted:
“You talk about justice, but you’re afraid your son is stronger than you!”
Abe fell silent, his eyes cold. After a few seconds, he replied: “You are blinded by power. This is no longer about Theo, it is about your reputation.”

The silence after that sentence is more terrifying than any argument.

The drama reaches its peak when Paulina leaves the house, leaving Abe standing alone, clutching the family photo. This scene makes viewers both sympathetic and angry – because clearly, they still love each other, but pride has won.

If the two cannot find a balance, Salem may lose the “golden couple” that once symbolized mature love. The question is: will Paulina return – or will she find a new ally to fight Abe in the Salem business world?
