I think it's been made clear she's desperate to keep Lee (whether it's love or something else), and not just for Mick's sake. I don't think she'd have been so devasted when Lee dumped her otherwise. She can chase Mick whether she lives in the Vic or not if that's her main aim.
I don't even know if she has feelings for Mick any more. I haven't seen any suggestions of them for a while now, although I wouldn't be surprised if they re-emerge.
