The Christmas atmosphere in Salem seemed warm, but the DiMera household was about to witness a true emotional explosion.

The perpetrator of this shock was none other than Peter Blake – the man thought to have “reformed,” now returned with a secret powerful enough to shatter all family relationships.

The Christmas party at the DiMera mansion began in a lavish atmosphere, with red wine, flickering candlelight, and Kristen smiling as if everything was settled.

But when Peter entered, everyone’s smiles vanished. He didn’t smile, didn’t offer congratulations, only silently looked at each person, his gaze as sharp as a knife.

Then he spoke—slowly, word by word—”I know everything. Everything you’ve done, and everything you’re trying to hide.”

No one in Salem had ever been immune to Peter’s fear. He didn’t yell, he didn’t erupt, but rather a simmering, terrifyingly intelligent danger. This time, he wasn’t just alluding to “family matters,” but also hinting that a member of DiMera might have been directly involved in the kidnappings within the crypt in recent weeks. The room fell silent, only the ticking of the clock could be heard. Tony broke out in a sweat, EJ struggled to remain calm, and Kristen was so startled she dropped her glass of wine.

Peter didn’t immediately name who was involved, but he offered a chilling “hint”: “Someone who was once saved from death… might be the one pushing others to their graves.” This statement immediately brought to mind characters who had “died and come back to life,” such as EJ, Kristen, or even Gabi.
