Chapter 230 - The Captions (1/2)

At Grey Mansion

Jorge was getting nervous as he looked at the small box in his hand. He had asked Miley to visit him at his family villa for dinner because he was planning to propose to her that day.

He heaved a long sigh as he looked at the set-up in his garden, then grabbed his mobile phone to call Miley.

”I'm almost there. Yeah… Why do you sound so excited to see me? I will be there in five minutes.” Miley commented with a chuckle.

Soon her car arrived at the gate, and she drove inside the mansion. ”Wow… what a beautiful arrangement of the lighting?” she murmured as she drove at the pathway.

”Isn't it early for a Christmas decoration?” she added as she instructed her driver to slow down and opened her window to enjoy the blinking of a variety of colored lights.

She smiled seeing Jorge was waiting for her at the parking space.

”Hey why are you standing here and waiting for me?” she beamed as soon as she went out of the car. Jorge pulled her into a tight hug.

”I missed you so much,” Jorge whispered in her ear. Miley giggled as she felt the butterflies inside her stomach. It had been three days since they last saw each other because she had to go abroad to represent their group. She came back this morning but her schedule was very tight so she told Jorge not to see her and agreed to have dinner with him tonight.

Jorge wanted to pick her up, but thinking that would be a hassle for him, she said she would go to his mansion after office and meet him there directly.

”I missed you too.” she mumbled and snuggled more into his chest, holding him with both her arms.

”So warm…” Miley commented.

”Don't you want this kind of warmth with you every day, Miley?” Jorge murmured.

Miley, with her face still buried in his chest, responded, ”Yes, I do. Isn't it obvious?”

”Then... let's get married… As soon as possible.” Jorge whispered next.

He gently released Miley and took out the small box kept hidden in his pocket. He was supposed to propose to her later, after the wonderful dinner that he had arranged for them both, but he felt as if the timing at that moment was just right for the proposal and he shouldn't wait anymore.

Miley was shocked to see the box, and she excitedly grabbed it from him and opened the small box from Jorge's hand.

”Ohhh Jorge. It's so pretty. What took you so long to give this to me?” Miley murmured as tears swelled and flowed out from her eyes.

Jorge scratched his head… He did not know what to say. He cursed himself for being so slow in the past.
