In a small way, I wish Ella was there to overhear what Roman said to Irene, only then I think she might begin to understand a little better about what Roman has been through.
I mean, I can understand where Ella's coming from, being angry that Roman wasn't there for her and the family in the past year but at the same time, she has to see Roman's point of view and why he felt he had to do this.
Both are not to be blamed for this and they need to stop blaming each other and work together to get through this.
A great update, Tele, as always!
