Home and Away

Home And Away: Chloe Cannot See The Bigger Picture

Nikau’s one-night-stand with Sienna is a betrayal from all angles but Chloe cannot see that…

The Paratas have always been about family and loyalty. However, when one of them betrays their partner, the one who has been cheated on is ousted. Look at what happened with Mac. Now, Bella has been hung out to dry after her boyfriend, Nikau cheated on her with his boss, Sienna after a misunderstanding that the talent agent orchestrated because she saw the upcoming photographer as a distraction to the model’s career. Chloe, Ari’s stepdaughter has become very vocal in her support for her step-cousin but she cannot see the situation from his ex’s perspective.

It has never been a secret that Chloe and Bella have a love-hate relationship and it’s easy to see why. They’re total opposites. However, it has put poor Ryder in a very awkward position. Chloe is his girlfriend but Bella is his best friend so he can’t take both their sides. So far, he has managed to stay out of it to the best of his ability.

When he and Chloe were arguing over whether what Nik did, Ryder sides with Bella as he knows right from wrong. Cheating is cheating. Chloe argued that her cousin was manipulated into sleeping with his boss. That shouldn’t matter as it is still infidelity. However, she won’t listen to reason due to her loyalty to her family.

Why We Bring This Up

The reason we’re bringing this up is that in a promo for later on in the week – the show is going on hiatus due to the Olympics – Bella is seen talking to someone about wanting Ziggy to dump Tane after she kissed Dean. Chloe overhears her and is not happy. She then confronts her and blasts her for criticising her family.

We find Chloe very annoying and absent-minded. If Ryder had been manipulated and hence, cheated on her, she likely wouldn’t forgive him. Now, Ryder is a pretty swell guy. He might annoy his grandfather but he has a big heart. He’s loyal to his friends and has learned to stay out of situations that have zero to do with him. We’re Ari and Mia would have something to say about that if it happened.

However, Chloe is not willing to accept Bella’s side of the story because of her one-sided bias towards her family. Also, Nik’s affair has nothing to do with her so she shouldn’t get a say in anything. Ari and Tane don’t and they’re his uncles. Neither does Mia.

Nikau should’ve known from the beginning that Sienna was using him and hated Bella’s guts. It goes to see what a vile human being the talent agent is. Scheming against the partner of her most sought after male model is a low blow. She only wanted Nik to succeed and didn’t care about his loved ones at all. If she cared at all, she wouldn’t have made an enemy out of Bella and made Allegra do her bidding. Thank god Emmett sees through her evil ploy.

As Chloe, she needs to think logically. Nik might be her family, but she can’t treat people like dirt because of something he did. Bella was nothing but loyal to him. She worshipped the ground he walked on then he doesn’t use his brain and now he’s left with nothing.
