Felix Westwood has had to leave Martine Deveraux behind to flee the village in Hollyoaks.
The couple were desperate for a solution in Wednesday's (October 20) first-look episode, as Felix continued to hide out from Fergus in Warren's garage.
Martine confided in Celeste that she was desperate to have Felix at her side, especially after Toby and DeMarcus started questioning Warren over where Felix had gone off too.

After Fergus intervened to insist Felix had done another runner, Grace assured Martine there was damning information on Fergus just waiting to be found.
"We just need time," Grace insisted.
Grace was later able to intercept Toby before he entered the garage to investigate, but she later tried to convince Felix he needed to get out of the village for now.
Martine soon arrived to agree with Grace that it would be impossible for Felix to continue hiding out somewhere where Fergus had access.

"You can't hide out in here forever, it's too dangerous," she told Felix.
Martine volunteered to go on the run with Felix until everything blew over, but he eventually saw that she was in no shape to go with him only a few days after her major operation.
"You go," Martine encouraged him.
The two shared one last kiss goodbye before Grace drove Felix away… and out of Martine's life forever? Or, at least, until Joel and Warren can get rid of Fergus.
