Refusing to take no for an answer, Martine followed Felix home and managed to draw the truth out of him.

“Forget it, it was rubbish,” Felix told his ex, to which she replied: “I don’t think it was.”

Felix then proceeded to tell all about the care home he grew up in, where he was abused by a man called Cormack.

“He was old school, he was a racist bully and I was the only non-white kid in there so I was singled out for ‘special correction’,” he told her.

“Cracked ribs, broken fingers, you name it. I thought it would stop when I was bigger than him, but it it didn’t – he just got more creative.”

Felix then went on to show Martine the horrific scars on his back, which brought her to tears.
