- Abby agreed with Sharon that Mariah deserves forgiveness.
Abby and Devon At Odds
Who would’ve seen this coming? Abby (Melissa Ordway) and Devon (Bryton James) are on opposite sides of Mariah’s (Camryn Grimes) situation. Up to this point, they remained a united front.
Dominic’s (Ethan Ray Clark) situation brought them closer together. At first, it seemed like Abby and Devon refused to forgive Mariah for what she did. But they understood that she was struggling with her childhood trauma.
On Tuesday’s episode, it was a different story. Abby finished a phone call while Devon approached her at Chancellor Park Cafe. He asked whether she planned to avoid him forever. Abby wasn’t too happy to see him.
She also didn’t want to discuss their private affairs in public. Devon wanted to know whether she had received his text about Holden (Nathan Owens) being part of the family and why she didn’t respond.
Abby claimed that she’s been busy. This scene exposed the distance between them. Devon knew why Abby was avoiding him. He filed a petition to review Mariah’s plea agreement.
Abby didn’t agree with him. But she could end up changing her mind, putting her on the opposing side of Sharon (Sharon Case). Abby and Mariah have a history, and it could rear its ugly head again.
Could Mariah Ruin Their Marriage?
Abby wasn’t happy to hear that Devon chose to go after Mariah. He didn’t even inform her that he was trying to get the plea deal reversed. Devon didn’t understand why it was such a big deal to his wife.
He argued that Dom’s safety is their top priority. But Abby didn’t see how a prison sentence for Mariah would keep their son safe. All she’s focused on is Mariah’s well-being, and time in jail could change that.
Abby wanted to know whether Devon was trying to force Mariah to make a mistake and mess up her plea deal. He admitted that he didn’t see that as a bad thing. Devon argued it was about justice, while Abby thinks he’s on a path of revenge.
Abby claimed that hospitalization is enough punishment for Mariah’s crimes, but Devon refused to see her side. Mariah’s situation could push them further apart. Devon’s anger towards Mariah has even divided Y&R fans.
As Y&R fans already know, Abby and Devon’s relationship started with infidelity and a lie. So, who will be the first to stray? Could someone other than Mariah get in the middle of their happy marriage? Or will they be strong enough to get through this?
