Aboah said she earned around $670k between January 2015 and July 2017, but her managers kept almost half of it. She demanded what she was owed, and says TLM wired some, but not all of the cash.

Adwoa eventually left TLM and says it's holding the money over her head -- just to punish her for bailing. As she puts it in the suit, "Fashion models are not indentured servants." She's suing to get the remaining balance, plus damages.
