Emmerdale: Mack wants Chloe to leave

Last night, Mack continued to try to get Chloe to leave Charity’s house.

Making out to Charity that it was in Noah’s best interests for Chloe to move out, Mack was really out to protect himself.

Speaking to Chloe, he offered to pay the deposit on a flat in Leeds so that she could move out.

Chloe took this personally and accused Mack of trying to get rid of her.

Mack then put Chloe on the spot in front of Charity, asking her to convince Charity to let him move back in.

Later on, in The Woolpack, Mack tried again to push Chloe out.

He told her that he had put down the deposit on the flat for her.

Chloe was livid, telling him that she never agreed to moving out.
