Next week, David will visit the troubled Clayton in prison and will beg the crook to leave Shona alone once and for all.
Despite his pleas, the heartless Clayton assures David that he will never be finished manipulating his wife.
After returning from the prison visit, David tells Nick and Gail exactly what's been going on and how troublemaker Clayton has been spreading lies about him to his beloved wife Shona.
In an bid to help the otherwise drastic situation, Nick visits Shona to try to make her see the light, but she ends up turning him and his good intentions away.
Later on, a defeated David tells Maria that his wife has 'done him a favour by asking for a divorce'.
The angry husband decides that he needs to move on and find another woman if he's going to get on with his life, so he heads for a drink.
Finding Alina in Victoria Garden, looking down in the dumps, a frustrated David sees her as the perfect person to move on with.
David sits down next to her and offers her a beer and when she agrees to share a can with him, there's a clear spark between the pair.
Before she can stop him, David texts Nick claiming that Alina’s ill and that she needs the rest of the day off.
Later, after a bust up with Seb in the Rovers over Alina, Nick urges David not to give up on his wife.
A distraught David then bursts into tears after realising the massive mistake he's made.
