Janine actress Charlie Brooks says her character is terrified this may be the case.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe wants to get Linda away from Jada as quickly as possible \u2013 to the point where she invites her in for Christmas lunch! She doesn\u2019t want them to have a conversation, so I think it\u2019s shock and fear guiding Janine,\u201d the soap star said.<\/p> <p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But the conniving character has a few tricks up her sleeve to make sure Jada stay silent. Not to mention that Jada\u2019s involvement in Linda\u2019s framing may result in the teen losing her own daughter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think Janine\u2019s hoping her powers of persuasion and the threat of Jada\u2019s own kid being taken away are enough to sway her from jeopardising everything,\u201d Brooks continued.<\/p>\n<p>As Linda attends Christmas dinner at Janine and her ex Mick\u2019s (Danny Dyer) house, the atmosphere is as tense as ever.<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;image-handler__container\" image-handler__container--full=\"\" style=\"&quot;padding-bottom:\" calc=\"\"> <picture><source
