Ok, Now I’m confused, I feel like I skipped a couple of chapters, How did Buhle come to live at the house and how is Qondi’s younger sister and Quvela’a younger brother coupling up.. I love your writing but I think you turn to lose the plot somewhere, Same as in the “Mafia’s Obsession” Chp37 just lost me and I couldn’t read it further because we went from focusing on the two main characters to two other characters all of a sudden falling in love. nah girl we need the book to be in sync. your writing is great but, something along the just makes me lose interest because it starts not making sense.

Zozi believed that that her friend will make it in life and still does believe in that girl who had fire in her eyes. That so sweet 😍😍😍

I feel like R2000 is a lot a week especially as a maid. Her father expected her to bring millions from a cleaning job for his future farm
