When she finds out about Lauren’s addiction, she begins blackmailing her, threatening to expose her unless Lauren keeps quiet about what she knows. Despite Lauren’s attempt to rid herself of the morphine and focus on her recovery, Cindy continues to press her, offering a regular supply of pills to help ease Lauren’s withdrawal symptoms. As Lauren’s health deteriorates, the pressure becomes too much for her to handle, and she ends up in hospital, fearing for her unborn child. Fortunately, a scan reassures her that the baby is fine, but Cindy is horrified to learn that Lauren has been using drugs while pregnant.
As tensions rise between them, Cindy lays down an ultimatum: either Lauren tells Pete
r the truth about her addiction, or Cindy will. With Peter increasingly suspicious about Lauren’s emotional instability, Cindy’s manipulation continues, forcing Lauren into a corner. Meanwhile, Peter seeks advice from Ian about how to support Lauren, and Ian suggests that Peter propose to her to demonstrate his commitment to their family. But as the pressure mounts, will Peter’s proposal have the desired effect, or will it only add to Lauren’s emotional turmoil?
