Bitter Zeedan Nazir tries to claw back some power in his marriage of convenience to Rana by pushing her love interest Kate Connor closer to Sophie Webster.
Knowing his wife still has feelings for her ex-lover, he determines to keep them apart from each other, so when he hears that Alya and Kate need to find a new flatmate to fill Luke Britton’s spot, he suggests to Sophie that she moves in.

Despite Kate not being delighted by the prospect, Alya thinks it’s a great idea and later Sophie tells her mum Sally that she’s really falling for Kate.
And Zeedan wastes no time in telling Rana the news, knowing it will upset her.
Oh dear.
It’s not long before Kate – who’s still in love with Rana – tells Sophie she’s had a change of heart and it’s too soon for her to be moving in.
Rana’s sister Imran Habeeb talks to her and tells her that going along with their parents’ plan to fake a happy marriage for a year will destroy her.
Later in the week, an emotional Rana confesses to Kate that Zeedan and her are only together because her parents have offered him money.
They end up having an intense heart-to-heart and confess their feelings for each other.
As they share a kiss, Zeedan catches them together.
