The 47-year-old star's character Rhona Goskirk has already been seen speaking to Moira Dingle (Natalie J Robb) about the latter's marriage to Cain.
On Thursday's double header (19.11.20), Moira took Rhona's advice and fought for her man, as she and Cain put their differences aside to reconcile their relationship.
However, tonight's episode will see Natalie's character wake up and realise Jeff's alter ego has left after they spent the night together.
Rhona arrives at the farm as Moira reveals what has happened and admits she's confused by Cain's sneaky exit.
Jeff, 50, and Zoe are married in real life, and both soap stars have admitted that they didn't want to be too involved on screen.
The couple have rarely shared a storyline in their time on the ITV soap and she has explained in the past that the pair would rather not "work together".
Zoe said: "I think we probably both prefer not to work together.
"Of course, we enjoy each other's company, yet I think we quite enjoy each other's independence at work.
"I don't know how Rhona and Cain would get on, either – although I can see why it's a source of amusement for people if we're in the same scenes."
She previously admitted there was one "hilarious" moment between their characters which lives long in the memory.
She revealed: "I thought it was hilarious when we found out that Cain is actually Rhona's secret crush.
"There was another scene after Pierce had gone [the first time], where Rhona got a bit drunk and tried it on with Cain in the Woolpack.
"That was horrendous to film, as I was so nervous about having to work with Jeff!"
