"Forbidden Kiss
Chloe is tempted by her old flame Leo.
Feeling overwhelmed by the speed of her engagement to Nicolette, Chloe turns to Leo. To Chloe, life feels out of control. She loves Nicolette but it's all moving too fast for her liking. Needing some time away, she heads to the vineyard for the night to clear her head.
So instead of heading to her brother Aaron and David's house, as she told Nicolette she would, Chloe spends the night at the vineyard with her business partner and former lover Leo.
Soon the wine starts flowing. The next thing Chloe knows, she waking up with a hangover and wearing nothing but Leo's jacket. She's can't remember anything from the night before and is worried something happened between her and Leo.
Racked with guilt and assuming the worst, Chloe decides to tell Nicolette but little does she know that her fianc?e already smells a rat. When Nicolette sees Jane and Clive's footage for the Erinsborough film festival and spots Chloe and Leo's cars parked overnight, she connects the dots.
Nicolette is extremely confused and wants to know why Chloe is lying to her. When Chloe confesses she may have slept with Leo but can't remember the events of the night, Nicolette is heartbroken but it gets more painful when she realises Aaron and David have been lying to her too. Chloe and the boys were her family but now they've betrayed her. Nicolette feels absolute fury, rage, devastation and disbelief. Aren't they happy? Aren't they a family? Aren't they about to bring a baby into this world?
With her world crumbling before her eyes, a heavily pregnant Nicolette flees, sparking an urgent search. After several hours, she's nowhere to be found, terrifying Aaron and David. The mother of their baby has disappeared and in David's eyes, it's all Leo's fault for getting between Chloe and Nicolette.
David blames Leo for upsetting and scaring Nicolette away, as she thinks Leo's had an affair with Chloe. Leo doesn't help the situation. He feels so strongly for Chloe that he doesn't back down and stands up to David for picking such a volatile surrogate. With frustration boiling over, David takes it out on his brother, punching him square in the face.
Chloe and Leo feel sidelined by the maelstrom of events, like it's the two of them against the world. In a vulnerable moment, Leo leans in for a kiss. This time, she's sober - but is Chloe about to destroy everything she had with Nicolette forever?"
