Next week’s episodes are super tense as his girlfriend Belle finally discovers just what sort of a man she has been sleeping with…
On Monday (3 September), she finally starts to suspect Lachlan. But, of course, this ultimately leads to her own life being in danger.
When the police arrive to ask Lachlan a few questions, he struggles to keep his composure.
