Nosipho Duma has always understood one thing — nothing in her life would ever come easy.
Raised in the quiet hills of KwaZulu-Natal, shaped by loss and responsibility, she leaves behind the only home she has ever known to chase a future in Johannesburg. With a degree in accounting and the weight of her family on her shoulders, failure is not an option.
At Imbasa Financial Group, she is just another intern.
Replaceable. Overlooked. Temporary.
Until she isn’t.
When a high-stakes business conference brings some of the most powerful names in the country into one room, Nosipho finds herself standing in a world that was never built for people like her.
And that’s where Lubanzi Nkosinathi Dlomo notices her.
Cold. Calculated. Untouchable.
A man who does not believe in chance.
But something about Nosipho refuses to be ignored.
As ambition collides with power, and emotions begin to blur professional lines, Nosipho must fight to hold onto who she is… in a world that rewards those who are willing to lose themselves.
Because in Johannesburg—
You are either chosen…
Or forgotten.

I still cannot figure out what's the story with Ayanda

Ayanda is what I call an epitome of a monitoring spirit.

I'm loving the pace, but I feel like we don't get the characters point of view enough.

Felt like I was in a suit and tie with a briefcase in my hand while reading this 🤣... I wish we got more but it is what it is. Nonetheless, I loved it. Thank you. ❤️
