Chelsea tries to drive a wedge between Paul and Terese in Neighbours

But will it be enough to win Paul back?

 17-23 MAY

When Darcy proposes extending his lease at 22 Ramsay Street long-term, Terese is left feeling uneasy. And with Chelsea finding another way to get close to Paul, this time by suggesting that Thomas should have the ‘Robinson’ name, Terese admits to Susan that she’s struggling with the ups and downs of their relationship.

Understanding, Susan verbalises Terese’s fear that she needs her house on Ramsay Street as security in case things go south with Paul.

Ultimately, Terese decides to offer Darcy a short-term renewal of his lease. Shrewdly realising that Chelsea is central to Terese’s decision, Darcy reveals Terese’s offer to Chelsea, who in turn informs Paul, who is taken aback.

Will Chelsea succeed in driving a wedge between Paul and Terese, in the hope of getting Paul back?

Meanwhile, Paul’s been waiting for the right moment to ask Terese about her reluctance to give Darcy a long-term lease on Number 22. He’s hoping her reasoning is to provide back-up accommodation for Nell, but when Terese truthfully reveals she’s feeling so insecure in her relationship with Paul that she wanted to keep her property as her own personal bolt hole, Paul feels hurt.

Apologising for upsetting him, Terese is fully aware she needs to work on her insecurities that have stemmed from Chelsea and Thomas becoming a constant presence in their lives. So when the opportunity arises for Paul to look after Thomas overnight without Chelsea around, everyone agrees it’s a good opportunity for Terese and Thomas to bond.

Making good on her promise to leave Thomas with Paul overnight, Chelsea secretly hopes this will cause more friction between Paul and Terese. She also attempts to make Paul jealous by claiming she has a date for the evening and deliberately dresses in a provocative manner when she drops Thomas off at the Penthouse.

In truth, Chelsea has a meeting with Jeffrey, the real father of Thomas. who’s keen to collect his blackmail money. Getting wind of their meeting, Paul is confused and angry. He also makes it clear that he doesn’t want Thomas to have anything to do with a conniving man like Jeffrey.
