accompanied by a chilling note that read, “I know what you did.” This unsettling gift followed Kim Tate’s return to Home Farm, following her love rival Rose Jackson’s dramatic eviction for trying to sabotage Kim and Will’s marriage.

The tension escalated when Don Taylor discovered what her father had been hiding and decided to move out of Home Farm. Meanwhile, Will has been keeping a significant secret from Kim: he and Rose shared a kiss before her departure.

In Friday’s episode, August 30, the plot thickens as Lydia Dingle, who was cleaning at Home Farm, notices Will’s growing unease. Lydia, troubled by the situation, attempts to discuss her concerns with Kim about Rose and Will. Kim acknowledges that she is aware of Rose’s

advances but reassures Lydia that Will has assured her that nothing further occurred. Kim appreciates Lydia’s concern but firmly states that she doesn’t wish to discuss it any further.

Amidst this tension, Will confides in his former business partner Jimmy King about the ongoing blackmail threat. As they try to unravel the mystery behind the threatening messages, Will contemplates confessing to Kim about his kiss with Rose to defuse the blackmail situation. Jimmy, however, advises him to stay vigilant and brace for more trouble, suggesting that Rose might soon lose interest and move on.

But the situation takes an unexpected turn. While Will and Jimmy are at the café discussing their suspicions, Lydia, who is sitting at a nearby table, overhears their conversation. Will admits to Jimmy that he never saw the person who delivered the threatening flowers. Just then, Will receives a new anonymous text message warning him, “I’m going to make you pay.” When he looks up, he catches Lydia staring intently at him with her phone in hand.

This shocking moment raises a startling question: Could Lydia be the elusive blackmailer? The revelation of Lydia’s suspicious behavior casts doubt on her intentions and adds a new layer of intrigue to the unfolding drama.
