Inspector Banks

"Pick up…. pick up… please" When the call did not get through, I burst into tears. The killer was now banging the door violently. “Inspector Kenneth speaking” Uncle Ken’s voice came through and right at the same the killer made a whole in the door by his continuous banging. "Uncle Ken, he's here, he is going to kill me…." I stated this in a panicked, horrified tone. “Zara, darling, we were going to have some fun why did you called the police?” he said in a cold tone bringing out his silvery knife. A shudder rushed down the spine. However, I maintained my composure. "You are over now," I said, trying to mask my terror. "Tsk, tsk, tsk, not yet…." He answered and raced towards me. What happens next???

As soon as the room was clear, I turned to him. “Well, Mr. Banks, I hope you remember the end of your deal. No one should know of our secret or how we even came to this decision. You and I are going to live our separate lives while married.” He smirked. “I think I should be the one to remind you to remember the end of your deal. If there’s anyone who’s going to break the rules that we’ve set, it’s going to be you. Admit it, Camilla, I am the man who comes to fulfill your every desire when you’re sleeping at night.” “See you tomorrow, Santino,” I rolled my eyes as I walked past him. “Don’t be late.” *** Camilla's comeback after her divorce from Lucius Hall leaves everyone with their mouths agape. No one thought that the girl Lucius picked up from the damp could be the richest woman to have ever lived. Not only is she being chased by every rich bachelor in town, but her ex-husband comes begging on his knees, asking for mercy when he loses everything. But fate might just play a funny trick on Camilla when she comes back with a son looking exactly like Lucius. And when a business deal that was meant to stay business turned into something more wanting and intimate, hearts are bound to break.

Monica Banks had it all—beauty, fame, and a rising career as one of the industry's top lingerie models. Her distinctive curves and magnetic presence made her a favorite on every runway and billboard. But at the peak of her success, she gave it all up. Not for herself, but for her father—agreeing to marry Liam McKenzie, a cold and calculating business tycoon, in exchange for a crucial deal that would save her family’s company. The McKenzie family loathed her profession. To them, modeling lingerie was shameful. They gave her a choice: her career or the marriage. Monica chose Liam, foolishly hoping her sacrifice would earn his love. She terminated her contract—despite her agency’s desperate pleas—and stepped away from everything she had built. For three long years, she played the role of the perfect wife and obedient daughter-in-law. And when Liam finally touched her like a husband should, she believed—naively—that she had finally won a place in his heart. That illusion shattered when she returned home early and found him in their bed with another woman. Her sister. Brie Banks. Liam didn’t deny it. He didn’t even apologize. Instead, he coldly revealed that their marriage was nothing more than a favor to his mother. Broken. Betrayed. Humiliated. But Monica had enough . When Spencer McKenzie—Liam’s estranged half-brother, the black sheep of the family blamed for a fire that killed their grandfather—returned to the country, he made her an offer. One that promised revenge. A scandalous one, She accepted. --- “Are you insane, Spencer? You’re stirring up a scandal with my wife!” Liam’s voice thundered through the room, his eyes blazing. His lips twitch"No you stay away from her, she's mine now."
