After weeks of torment , Anna pleaded with Valerie to stop Pat from blackmailing her family as it was putting a lot of stress on Owen and Gary . Anna then admitted that Pat made advances on her , but Valerie accused her of possibly bringing it on herself and refused to help . However ( off - screen ) Valerie confronted Pat , who decided to talk to Anna . After realising what strain his actions were causing to her family , he gave her proposition : to have sex with him and he would let Gary and Owen go from the project . Although disgusted , Anna went along with his plans out of desperation and met him at the Dunford Hall Hotel where they slept together .
