In the latest episodes 13 to 15, Mqhele goes out of his way to impress Hlomu by buying her a brand new car, and then send a request for every taxi driver to remove their taxis for a night, to have a perfect moment to propose to Hlomu who was smitten immediately and did not hesitate to say yes.
“I don’t want to breathe for another second without you by my side. Please allow me to send my uncles to your family,” says Mqhele.
