Part 27

They hid out at Irving Hall for the rest of that day. Gin and Jack kept a low profile for a month to follow. By then Heptson gave up and left her be, and Sage happened to find out about the slight tumble the night before the wedding and insisted that Jack marry her. Jack happily did so and Gin couldn't have been happier herself.

Together they vowed to love each other and face whatever was to come together. The threat of Heptson still worried Gin so that night they made the decision to leave New York.

Jack called in a favor and the two set off for his dream in Santa Fe. There they bought a small ranch, which prospered and grew. Jack and Gin did make one last tip back to New York when hearing of the wedding of Sneaks and Jake despite what Graft would have wanted. When they returned Sage decide to join them on their small ranch and help.

They never had a great deal of money but they had a great deal of love. Their relationship lasted throughout their lives and showed clearly to their children. Jack and Gin found the secret that was ignored by many people of the time. That was that money can't buy happiness or love, but instead it is only a perk to the love that you find.

The battle between Love and Money rages on sparing only those who find this secret, which has been passed on by this story of two who clearly show that love can defeat anything-even money.
