Meanwhile, after overhearing Eve worrying about Suki’s safety, Mitch feared that Suki had been a victim of domestic violence, like Chantelle.
When Mitch offered to get some food for Suki, Nish declined and said they didn’t want any visitors. At No.41, Vinny tried to get Suki to open up about her feelings, but Nish stopped the conversation.
Frustrated, Vinny gave Eve his keys, hoping she could get through to Suki.
When alone, Eve told Suki there was only one way out of this – she had to report Nish for pushing her down the stairs.
