The Great CEO's Wife is a Gangster 148 CHAPTER 148: ESCAPE PLAN

Stacy and Sherry spend the whole day strolling around the mall. At first, Silver was following them but he gave up after an hour. His knees surrendered at the two women's vigor so he ordered his men to carefully watch them while he waits at Starbucks cafe.

After a few hours, they decided to go home. Stacy has been lost in her own thoughts since they were in the car. So when they reached their room, Sherry approached her.

"Is everything okay, dear?" she was worried.

Stacy faced her with determination. "Miss Sherry, we can scape! I have a plan." Her eyes widened.

Sherry was surprise as well. "W-what do you mean?"

"Miss Sherry, I think we can escape together. Remember when we were out for shopping?"

Sherry nodded. "Yeah… what about it?" she asked. Stacy suddenly held both of her hands.

"Have you seen what happened to Silver?" Stacy was trying to shove her observations to her.

"Yeah, he and his men had been following us everywhere." Sherry replied.

"Yes that's right. but he didn't last after an hour!" Stacy cried. "He gave up since he can't keep up with us. We can ask Silver for an outdoor breakfast again next time then we'll find a way to escape from his grasp!" She continued.

"But Stacy, his men had been watching us carefully. You know that."

"Yes I know but I think we can outsmart them. All we need is just a concrete plan. We can also ask Johnny for his help." Stacy was trying to convince the woman.

"But Stacy… I--'' she lowered her head. Stacy can sense her hesitation.

"Miss Sherry, what's the problem?" She inquired. She knew that the woman was frightened for who knows why.

"Stacy, I don't know if both of us will be able to escape. But there's one thing I'm sure of, I will help you no matter what happened." Her tone was full of motherly love and Stacy can't sense any lies nor pretensions on it. however, she is sure that the assurance is not the problem.

"Miss Sherry, I don't think that's the main problem." She fired. "You are afraid. I think you fear him. what are you afraid of?"

Sherry averted her gaze. "I also wanted to be free from his grip, Stacy. But I guess you're right. I am indeed afraid." her voice hints sadness, then she smiled pathetically.
"But it's not because I fear him. it's because I don't know what to do without him. I mean, my whole life revolved around him and I don't have the slightest idea as to where I came from. or who I was and what have I've been doing in the past." She explained.

Stacy was a bit confused at her statements. She never heard anything about her aside from being married to Silver with a dead child with the same name as her.

"What do you mean by that? you don't have any idea as to who you are in the past? How did that happen?" Stacy wanted to hear her story.

Sherry stood up and went near the window. she slides the curtains on the side to have a peek at the blue sky.

"I don't remember anything about my past life. Silver said I had an accident fifteen years ago and a part of my brain was damage. It has greatly affected my memory. That may be the reason as to why I can't remember anything. Not even my daughter's face." A tear escapes her eyes.

"But since I stopped taking the pill that Silver has been giving me, I started to have weird dreams. I don't know but I think they were a part of my memories in the past. I've had constantly dreaming of my daughter." She continued.

"So what if I escape, where will I go? how am I going to start a new life? Stacy, I don't know what to do. if only my Emily is alive…" she mutters.

"You can live with me Miss Sherry." Stacy suggested. "You can stay at my place for the meantime. Besides, you've been treating me as your own daughter, right. So why don't we just stay on the same roof while sorting out our future plans?" she smiled blissfully.

Sherry looked at her in awe. Living on the same roof seems to be good plan. She can be Stacy's mother for real. Why not? Spending your remaining time in freedom is more worth living than surviving like a prisoner forever.

"I love to!" Sherry finally smiled. Stacy dash to her side and embraced her. it has been her lifelong desire to experience how to have a mother-like figure who truly cares.

"Thank you." she whispered.

"No Stacy, I thank you for giving me a chance to be a mother again." Sherry caresses her back.

"By the way, do you have any picture when you were young or during your teenage years?" Stacy suddenly asked after.

"I'm not sure. I don't know if Silver kept some. But I have a picture of my Emily when she was young."

"Do you have it with you? Johnny might be able to help us know about your past life." Stacy proposed.

Sherry thought for a while. It seems to be a good idea so she tried to look for the young Emily's picture which she took at Silver's study room before. After a few minutes, she gave up searching.

"I believe I had it with me but it's not in my bag. I'll try to search in my closet later." Sherry was trying to remember where she placed it.

"That's fine." Stacy smiled. "I'll help you later once Silver goes to work."

***

Ethan drove to his company after settling the matters with the Mikasa family. Yes, they were able to fix their plan before he left.

Earlier at Rio's house, Ethan suggested that someone will join the pack but he never thought that Aisha and the others assumed that he'll volunteer himself.

"Hha! I didn't say it would be me. but Shawn will be a great help to the team." He suggested. At first, they hesitated but when Ethan was able to convince them, he called Shawn to prepare.

He knew that having Shawn in the pack will be of great help, though Hunter and Sophie's abilities are incomparable.

As soon as Ethan entered his office, he was shocked to see Clint sitting pretty on the couch with a glass of wine in his hand.

"Clint? Why didn't you inform me that you'd be here?" he greeted his best friend.

"Miss me? hha! I've been trying to call you since this morning but I can't reach you that's why I dropped by instead."

"Oh I'm sorry bro, my phone's dead since last night. I didn't notice it." Clint sense the glow at Ethan's face.

"Is there's something you want to tell me, Ethan?" his gaze was accusing but Ethan chuckled nonchalantly.

"It's none of your business." He smirked. "By the way, why are you here"

"Because I want to show you something bro." his tone became serious which is rare considering the likes of him.

"What is it?" Ethan creased a brow.

Clint brought his phone out then did something on it. after a while, he showed him the picture on his phone. Ethan was surprise himself. Why is Aisha with Silver and Sherry? When was that? he thought.

Wait! Ethan shuddered when he realized something…

"Clint, is that…."

"Stacy? Yes, I believe it was her. I saw them this morning."

Ethan's eyes widened in surprise. How come? How come she's with the Gray's? he muttered
