It was miraculous that she even survived, but Chloe Harris (Jessie Elland) is far from out of the woods, as she fights for her life in hospital.

Mack Boyd (Lawrence Robb) had pulled his ex Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins) to safety, leaving Chloe to plunge down a ravine in a mangled car.

She was rushed to hospital and Mack and Charity have been left anxiously waiting for news.

Well, in between glancing at one another with knowing and guilty looks.

Chloe was rushed into surgery on her brain, with Mack panicking that she wouldn’t make it through this.

Amy and Matty (Natalie Ann Jamieson and Ash Palmisciano) arrived to visit her, and assured Mack that there was nothing more he could have done.

When Chloe came out of surgery, Mack and Amy were informed that she had been placed in an induced coma.

She was being monitored and likely to be brought round in a few days, depending on the swelling.

But there was a concerning warning that brain damage may be a possibility.

Mack went in to speak to Chloe and was taken aback by how frail and vulnerable she looked.

He told her how sorry he was and, kissing her on the head, he told her that he loves her.

Back in the waiting room, Amy asked if he had known what to say to her as it had been hard for her, and Charity mentally noted that Mack didn’t tell her anything he said.

When Mack and Charity were left alone once more, Charity quizzed him over what this means for them – his choice to save her must be a sign of something.

Mack unconvincingly shut this down, describing his decision as a reflex, but Charity stirred the pot by suggesting that it was instinct because of how he feels about her.

An air of uncertainty hangs over the air – will Chloe survive and, if so, in what condition will she wake up in?

And will Mack and Charity really pursue their attraction with all of this going on?
