The Queen: Schumacher is in it for the money
Who would have ever thought that Schumi would one day date someone who isn’t older than him? At first, it seemed like he and Mpho were going to be the couple of the year when he stood up to Hector, who was not happy with him dating his daughter.
As each day comes, it’s becoming evident that Schumacher is back to his old ways, using Mpho as a ticket out of poverty. Let’s take a look at the moves Schumi has been making recently.
It’s all about the Randelas
Mpho is so in love with Schumacher and won’t allow anyone to come between them. Unfortunately, the genuine love isn’t reciprocated as Schumi’s interests all lie in her family’s finances.
From new clothes, R5 000 worth of airtime and a brand-new car, to money in his bank account, Mpho is giving Schumacher whatever he wants, while he is focused on not repeating the mistakes he made when he was with Gracious and Kgosi. The viewers couldn’t believe how naive Mpho has been about this entire relationship.
Love is blind
Thando is not impressed with her sister’s new boyfriend and she thinks she can do better than to date a man who is just a driver. The siblings have been at each other’s throats about the relationship but Mpho isn’t hearing it.
”Everyone with eyes can tell that this man is only using you,” says Thando.
Aunt Patronella also tried to speak some sense into Mpho but she got told to mind her own business.
”You know, we might be friendly with each other but you need to remember your place. Don’t meddle in my business with Schumacher,” Mpho said.
To top it off, she’s now buying Schumacher a house.
Schumacher has his eye on the prize
It seems like Schumacher has hit two birds with one stone. Not only has he won Mpho’s heart but he has also managed to get Hector in his corner. Remember, Schumacher now knows about Hector’s drug side business.
When confronted about his relationship with Mpho, he convinced him that he will even quit his job and work for the Sebatas.
Hector thinks this will work to his advantage as he plans to use Schumacher to spy on the Khoza turf. What’s worse is that Mpho doesn’t know about her family’s dirty business.
