The game starts while they are interacting through playing gambling,

"from when you started? I often come here also many places, seeing you first time?" - Kevin says.

"Life isn't a plan, It surprises you like this {referring to their meeting}" - Jack says with a smile

"that's true! then what do you do for a living?" - Kevin asked once again

after leaning forward a bit Jack replied in his whispery tone, "Secret"

"what about you?" - Jack asked back afterward "Same here" - Kevin replied in the same whispery energy while both smiling at each other.

"your girlfriend?" - while gesturing to Liliana Kevin asked Jack, Jack nodded confidently and asked back, "yours?" 

"My wife" - Kevin says while kissing his wife's hand, they both smile at each other.

The game was about to end, they kept betting while Jack seems losing in every round

"you said, life isn't a plan... It's a bunch of surprises? like this? {poking him for losing until now}" - Kevin says with a smile

"don't take your opponent lightly even though you are winning Mr. Kevin" - Jack made his ultimate bet & won the game in no time, Liliana smiled from behind. Kevin smiles as well, "Interesting, I like you... can we have a drink? only us?" - Kevin offers him.

Jack nods after making eye contact with Liliana he leaves with Kevin while Liliana accompanies Kevin's wife.

"Hello Miss, you are looking gorgeous" - Liliana complimented her

"Oh! you are looking outstanding... the most eye-catching, every man can't stop but glance at you" - Mrs. Kevin complimented back

"Oh you are just fluttering Ma'am, Thank you so much! May I know your name if you don't mind?" - Liliana says

"Well, sure! It's Ruiz Jennifer, what about you?" - the gorgeous lady asked.

"I am Liliana Mandoza" - Liliana replied while offering a drink but Ruiz seemed to refuse her offer

"Thank you but I can't have it" 

"You don't drink?" - Liliana asked, Ruiz nodded as 'No'

"I am pregnant" - Ruiz replied making Liliana a bit surprised, "Oh! congrats, then I think you should avoid coming to these places"

"Actually I haven't told him yet about this. I wanna surprise him" - Ruiz says with a smile

"awwee so sweet, take this at least... It's not alcohol, it's orange juice. let's toss and celebrate" - Liliana offers another glass but this time juice. the moment Liliana was about to pass her the glass when she intentionally poured it into Ruiz's dress.

"Oops!! Sorry Sorry!! I didn't mean- " - Liliana acting as if she was panicking

Ruiz stood up & said, "It's Okay! I'll use the washroom" - she leaves while trying to adjust her dress when from behind Liliana keeps apologizing, as soon as Ruiz leaves her sight Liliana uses that chance to put a tracker and very cleverly puts that on Kevin's phone which was with Ruiz and she left on her sofa. before anyone could notice she did it confidentially.

Afterward, Ruiz came to dry her dress as she was wearing a dark color so it didn't affect her so much yet Liliana apologized again. "C'mon! It's not a big deal" - Ruiz confronts.

Liliana looked at Jack's side and made eye contact with a smile, Jack caught her gesture he smiled back.

"So, are we meeting at that ship party?" - Kevin approaches Jack.

Jack somehow flinched but didn't wanna show, "Which one?"

"2 days later, Philadelphia Ocean?" - while toasting with Jack he said.

"Oh yeah!! I might attend, but I am in a hurry now!! I will leave first" - after finishing his drink he was about to leave.

"Did you get what you came for?" - Kevin asked making Jack flinch, that's when Jack recalled he had made a blunder by calling him by his name before they were introduced to each other.

"So, you caught me! I am your big fan sir so I was just stalking you!" - Jack says in disappointment.

"Who are you?" - Kevin asked in a serious tone ignoring Jack's joke.

"find me and tell me next time what you get!!" - Jack says & left

"Everything has a reason & that's a mystery Mr. Jack" - Kevin says with a smile.

Jack & Liliana left together the Casino,

"he caught me!" - Jack said.

"What?" - Liliana asked

"I mistakenly called him by his name" - Jack says

"Seriously? How can you be so stupid?" - Liliana disappointed.

"what's your news?" - Jack asked back ignoring her statement.

"Ruiz is pregnant and Kevin doesn't know about this yet" - Liliana said

"Did you put the tracker?" - Jack asked again, Liliana nodded as 'yes' 


Suddenly Jack gets a message from Mr. James,

"Another Robbery, In New York"
