Emmerdale spoilers: Jai is out for revenge

1. Jai plots his payback on Laurel

Jai is still fuming over Laurel secretly buying his shares of The Hide. The news came as a big shock to Jai, who believed he had the upper hand in their divorce battle.

But Laurel has had enough of Jai being so vile to her. He won’t pay her what she’s owed, so she decided to take it for herself.

With Gabby’s help, Laurel purchased Jai’s shares in the business. But Jai is not going to let Laurel get one over on him that easily. He is out for revenge and not bothered who he hurts along the way.

2. Jai spins Laurel an awful lie

Later, the mediator arrives for her session with Jai and Laurel. But the sneaky Sharma has a surprise in store.

As talk turns to money, Laurel is horrified when her soon-to-be-ex-husband declares he’s broke! Jai reveals he’s sold both Holdgate and Tenants to pay off some of his debts, meaning he’s got nothing to give Laurel in their divorce.

However, it’s just another one of Jai’s lies. He still owns the properties, but wants to ensure Laurel doesn’t get a penny from him. Seriously, how low can you go?

Caleb continues to drip poison into Jai’s ear and declares he doesn’t owe Laurel anything. Caleb’s support encourages Jai to continue his mission. What does he have in store next for poor Laurel?
