Fuller says in April, when he emailed that he loved her, Toni was no longer in the business. They were no longer having sex. #badenclay

Fuller asks why he is still communicating with her. Not for the business, not for the sex. Gerard says to "placate her". #badenclay



Gerard says he can't remember why he told her he loved her on three occasions in the April communication. #badenclay

11:44am: Mr Fuller noted July 1 happened to be his wife's birthday.

"It also happens to be today," Mr Baden-Clay replied.

11:43am: Mr Fuller has questioned Mr Baden-Clay about the emails he sent to Toni McHugh promising to be with her "unconditionally" by July 1.

The email read: "This is agony for me too. I love you. I'm sorry you hung up on me. It sounded like you were getting very angry. I love you GG. Leave things to me now. I love you GM."

Mr Baden-Clay and Ms McHugh called each other GG for "Gorgeous Girl" and GM for "Gorgeous Man".
