He said that the affair was discovered and ended in September, 2011, but resumed again in December that year.
Justice Byrne said the accused went to Ms McHugh and told her he loved her.
He said at some stage the accused suggested they should not meet again until after he left his wife.
He said there was some correspondence between them in which the accused planned to leave his wife by 1 July, 2012.
Justice Byrne said that by mid-April 2012 the pair were in regular contact.
He said they spoke by phone for more than 29 minutes on the evening of April 19, 2012.
He said Ms McHugh lost it when he told her his wife would likely be at the same real estate conference as she was attending the next day.
Justice Byrne said Ms McHugh told the accused she needed to know what his plan was and how he was going to change things so they could be together.
He said Baden-Clay’s response was that he was thinking of selling the business.
He said the next day, Ms McHugh called the accused, and he told her his wife was missing.
Justice Byrne said Baden-Clay replied that he had not argued with her.
He said the next day, Baden-Clay told Ms McHugh to “tell the truth” to police.
He said he called her again later that day, while she was in a police interview, asking whether she had told them they were together.
Justice Byrne said she told him “yes”.
He said they met for the last time in June, 2012, at a block of units in Fortitude Valley, in which Baden-Clay told her “things aren’t looking good for me, you should fall in love with someone else”.
Justice Byrne’s summing up resumes at 2.30pm.
