Her Dark Desires-Chapter 63: Logan’s Dirt On Ryan

Isle Club [Private Room.]

"You should know that I’m too old for clubs." Charlotte sneered as she sat down opposite the man who had been nagging to meet her.

"That’s why I reserve a private room," Logan said with a smile.

Charlotte crossed her legs and went straight to the point. "What do you want?"

"To become the next president of this great country," Logan said with a charming smile. Although he was forty-eight years old, his handsome face and body build were able to make one think he was younger. The first time he met Charlotte, he thought she would be into him but ended up surprised when she mocked him and told him that he was not at her level. This made him wonder how that dead Antonio was able to make such a woman fall for him.

"And here I was thinking you had something important to tell me. I’m a busy woman, Logan; I don’t have time to waste on your nonsense. Do I look like a politician to you?" Charlotte said with a mocking smirk.

"You may not be a politician, Charlotte, but you know how to pull some strings, you know how to make people do things for you, and you have connections all over the world, so I am sure making me a president shouldn’t be such a hard task, right?"

"Aren’t you ashamed to be asking a woman for help?"

"Not if that woman is greater and more capable than a thousand men," Logan replied instantly.

Charlotte stood up as she said "You are not qualified. The least I can do for you is to ensure that you win the Mayor election again, just don’t become too greedy."

"I found out some interesting things about Ryan, today. After Ryan saved those girls who were kidnapped to be sold or to be used for prostitution, the world now sees him as a hero."

Charlotte scoffed and replied, "I gave birth to a great son, so what about it?"

If only this woman wasn’t arrogant, he wouldn’t mind leaving his wife for her in a heartbeat. Logan smiled at his thoughts and poured himself a drink before saying, "Now that Ryan has become a public figure, I wonder if the world will still see him as great once they find out that your son killed someone six years ago."

"How did you....."

"I knew you wouldn’t help me if I didn’t have anything to hold you, but then I thought, the great Charlotte Sanders has a weakness, her two sons. So I used all my resources to find dirt on them. Zachary was clean, too clean if you ask me, so it was obvious he was hiding something big, but I couldn’t access him. Ryan, although it wasn’t easy, I finally found something on him. You paid the family not to press charges or go to the media about it, right? It’s a shame that this news can still reach the media if you do not help me to have a successful campaign."

"Are you threatening me?" Charlotte sneered.

Logan flinched, saying, "I wouldn’t call it that. I would prefer to say, I’m just making a deal with you."

Charlotte laughed softly and said, "This is why you can never become the president, Logan; you just aren’t smart enough."

"I would watch my words if I were you."

"Go to the media about it and make a fool of yourself. Who would believe you? Especially when they can’t find the said family? Do you think I would trust my son’s life in the hands of parents who didn’t hesitate to collect money inorder to forget about their son’s death?"

"What did you do to them?"

"What I did to them is none of your business but good luck finding them. I’m impressed that you were able to get such information about my Ryan but then it’s a shame it’s useless. No charges were ever made, which means you didn’t get it from the police records, and I’m sure the family can’t be found, so you didn’t get it from them either, which means it must have been a neighbor or someone who knew them at that time."

Logan looked away causing Charlotte to laugh.

"If you think the information gotten from a nobody is capable of bringing down my son then you are even more stupid than I thought."

"Charlotte, just because you are a Sanders doesn’t mean you are all-powerful."

"Really? Thanks for the enlightenment." Charlotte said and was about to leave when she suddenly stopped and turned to look at Logan saying "You are nothing without me Logan, just keep being my dog until I decide it is time you need a promotion and the next time you dare to threaten my sons, will be the day I will destroy you. Your name, wealth, reputation, and everything you cherish will disappear in the blink of an eye. I will make you regret your existence, and it isn’t a threat; it is a warning."

"I am not afraid of you," Logan replied.

Charlotte let out a cruel smirk as she asked, "Really? That’s good, it just means I won’t have to hold back in punishing you for your actions today. I have an unspoken rule, Logan, and that is you don’t mess with my sons, and today you broke it."

Logan wondered why it suddenly became difficult to breathe. Charlotte has always spoken to him coldly but it was never like this. Just what is she planning to do to him? He suddenly let out the breath he was holding when Charlotte left the room. What was wrong with him? How could he be scared of a woman, and how the hell did Charlotte even become so powerful after the death of her husband?

He remembered when he heard a friend of his talking about Antonio’s wife and how beautiful and shy she was. If Charlotte was truly once like that, then how did she suddenly change over time? How did that timid woman grow to become the most powerful and feared woman in this country?
