Aaron and his husband, David Tanaka (Takaya Honda) were ready to step in and become Abigail's legal guardians after David's brother, Leo decided he couldn't cope with being a single dad.
But there's another SHOCK in store when Aaron discovers that his own sister, Chloe (April Rose Pengilly) is responsible for convincing Leo not to give up on Abigail.

He's trying to push on with business as usual at Lassiters.

However, neither Leo or Paul's granddaughter, Harlow (Jemma Donovan) think any more about it.
Left all alone, things suddenly take a terrible turn for Paul...
