The miners have found a diamond at Khanyisa Diamonds and gave it to Bukhosi instead of Lindiwe which resulted in them getting killed so that she can remain in the dark. She later drops by unannounced at the Hlophes and sees a strange man with them, who happens to be the one who'll help them sell it.

After their plan to rile up the miners, even going as far as hijacking Lindiwe and kidnapping both Andile and Nkanyiso, the Hlophes are now concerned that the miners are taking it way too far and they continue to negotiate a reasonable increase. It remains to be seen if they will agree with the offer.

The Hlophes don't have timing one thing about them but it seems to be working in their favour so far. They have managed to keep going with their plans to take Khanyisa Diamonds away from Lindiwe and making Andile their puppet is paying off because now, the miners are on a strike and demanding more money.
