Chapter 324: Lifetime Partner
Chapter 324: Lifetime Partner
Miley and Jorge spent most of their time together while they were dating, before their wedding ceremony.
This one time Miley pulled him for an extreme outdoor activity like bungee jumping.
"Seriously? Are we really going to do this right now? What's up with you? Why do you want to try something like this?" Jorge asked with? a crumpled face.
"This is called facing your fears. You have to try this, it'll help you get over your fear of heights…" she encouraged him.
"Look at me I overcame mine by sleeping in your haunted house…" she added with a tease.
Jorge's ancestral home was honestly very creepy even after it got renovated but? because of her strong will to be with Jorge oftentimes, she managed to ignore it.
"But that's different… Geez look at the? height…" Jorge muttered as he watched other? people trying it from a distance.
Just thinking of himself jumping from somewhere that high made him feel… 'Urggh!' He could feel his stomach already turning upside down.
"No way on earth am I doing that!" He exclaimed.
"But you will do it with me… I'll be there with you…" Miley insisted. This was something Jorge did not like about Miley ever since. She had an attitude where she had the tendency? to insist on things she wanted.
Jorge heaved a long sigh as he murmured, "Miley please… You can ask me to do anything. Just, not this. Please…"
'Oh snap!' He mused with shock on seeing Miley's sudden blank expression.
Without a word, Miley turned around and headed back inside the car.
Jorge scratched his head and followed her? inside the car quickly.
"Miley… please don't be mad?" Jorge pleaded as he started the car's engine.
"Just drive and go wherever you want to…" Miley hissed. Then added, "Drop me off to father's first."
Jorge only sighed and drove the car. Usually, Miley would get irritated for about an hour and the two of them would be good after that.
"Miley… You know I'm willing to do anything for you right? But doing the thing you requested a while ago just seems so meaningless." Jorge spoke up because he could not take the silence anymore.
"So you think I'm childish and immature?" Miley grunted.
"Yeah… The way you're acting right now is childish. Please don't push me for doing nonsense things, especially if I'm not comfortable with it. I can tolerate some of them and am willing to play along but not everything Miley…" Jorge explained.
Mileys nostrils were flaring with irritation because she just wanted to see how submissive her future husband could be towards her and it seemed like she would not be getting full submission.
She heaved a sigh of frustration.
Jorge did not drive her straight to home at Sy mansion but instead stopped over at Miley's favorite restaurant.
"Let's have dinner first…" he said and opened the door for Miley who still looked sulky.
"Sorry Sir but we are already full…" the receptionist at the entrance informed them.
"Jorge?!" A woman who entered greeted them.
She heard what the receptionist said so she offered, "If you want you can join us at my table."
The woman looked at the receptionist and said, "I reserved four seats. Unfortunately it will only be me and my cousin. My friend can use the other two seats."
The receptionist nodded and Jorge thanked her. She was Dona, a former classmate of his? from college. Jorge introduced Miley to her as his fiance.
When they were seated, Miley could not help? but feel more annoyed because it was very evident Dona was one of Jorge's admirers.
She was silent most of the time while the two enjoyed, reminiscing over their college days.
"Hubby… We should send Dona an invitation to our wedding," Miley's attitude suddenly changed and that startled Jorge because she leaned closer to him and hugged his arm.
Dona's forehead crumpled as she replied with, "You two will get married that fast? I thought you just got engaged…"
Miley's eyebrows raised and with a poker smile she beamed, " Fast? Well, we sure can't wait to be married… Right hubby?"
Jorge gulped and timidly nodded, wondering why Miley suddenly started calling him 'hubby'.
Miley twitched her mouth seeing Jorge's expression, as usual, with his low EQ, he probably could not grasp and understand the situation.
The dinner ended soon and Miley was quiet again as soon as they got inside the car. It was well past an hour already and Miley even called him hubby so he wondered why she was still quiet.
"Please sleep at? my place now?" Jorge requested as he drove.
"No. Wait until we're married! Until then I will not sleep with you!" Miley grunted.
Jorge suddenly stopped the car on the side of the road. He did not want to part ways with Miley with them still being in argument. They should make up and clear things out before he dropped her off at Sy mansion.
He turned to face Miley, grabbed her hands and asked, "what's wrong? I thought we were? good already?"
'Geez why do you have such a low EQ… Seriously? Do I have to say to his face I'm jealous?' Miley mused in annoyance.
"Miley please tell me… Are you still mad about the stupid bungee jumping? If you want let's just do indoor rock climbing tomorrow. I think I can do something like that. I will try it for you…" Jorge tried to convince her, thinking Miley was still pissed off at him for rejecting the bungee jumping.
Miley exhaled loudly and with her big rounded eyes exclaimed, "Jorge that Dona likes you.? Didn't you feel it even a bit? The subtle hints?!"
She was so annoyed when Dona asked for Jorge's calling card! And Jorge gave her one!
Jorge was taken aback for a moment as if trying to decipher what Miley just said. When he finally got it he murmured, "Oh… You're jealous?"
Muley did not know whether to laugh or cry at? Jorge's question that was full of hesitation. Miley did not answer but blew some air onto her forehead.
Corners of Jorge's lips curved upwards and? he instantly pulled Miley for a breathtaking kiss whispering, "Geez, you should not get jealous because my eyes only see one woman and that's you wifey…"
"Stop it we're not husband and wife yet!!!" Miley scorned.
Jorge sweetly gave her a quick peck on the? nose and said, "I consider you as my wife? with or without the marriage ceremony because for me… you're my lifetime partner…"
