The Law of Attraction Chapter 253

“What was that?” Miley burst as Jorge pulled her away from Noah and Brione. 

“You were taking too much time talking to him.” Jorge mumbled with pouting lips. He recalled how Miley praised Noah before during their meals with the family and seeing her talking seriously with him made him jealous.

“Seriously?” Miley gasped as she tried to suppress her grin. Jorge looked so cute when he acted jealous, but then he just killed off an important conversation she was having with Noah so she must scold him.

“Hey… Where are we going?” Miley yelled as she noticed that Jorge was already pulling her far away from where the party was being held and before she knew they were already inside the maze garden of Mrs. Huang.

“Let’s walk here for a while and enjoy the night here. It’s too loud there. Plus, you wouldn’t be able to talk to that Noah too much this way.” Jorge mumbled. Miley halted, pulled her hand away from him and stared at him sharply.

“What?” Jorge breathed. He knew he was acting childish, but it really irritated him when he saw Miley talking with Noah for a long time. The man was undeniably handsome, and he felt a pang of jealousy when Miley sat on the same table indulging him too much.

“Look at you getting insecure. Yeah, Noah is handsome, but don’t you still get the point that in my eyes there’s only one man who I see as the most handsome among all the men around me?” Miley chortled with crossed arms and raised eyebrows.

Jorge’s face turned crimson red hearing the cheeky way Miley spoke, and that was clearly visible under the bright moonlight shade.

Miley could not help but curve her lips in a playful grin. She raised her arms and wrapped them tightly around Jorge’s neck.

“We are getting married soon, so I don’t see the point of your insecurity. I thought the fact that I have been pursuing you ever since I graduated from college will give you more confidence about how much I love you, so now… tell me what’s this attitude of yours, huh?” Miley teased. She so loved that expression of timidness of Jorge whenever she would tease him.

“Stop grinning…” Jorge scolded.

“Or what?” Miley bubbled.

Instead of answering, Jorge leaned down and captured Miley’s lips before she could tease him more.

“Someone might see us here…” Miley whispered in between Jorge’s kissing.

“Let them see and enjoy watching lovers kissing and hugging under the moonlit night and feel how lonely it is not to have a love life…” Jorge murmured, making Miley chuckle while kissing.

Not far from where Jorge and Miley stood, Clyde shook his head as he saw the couple kissing in open such shamelessly. 

“Look at those insensitive people, showing a public display of affection at this hour.” he complained as he turned around to go back. He was planning to check on the beautiful garden of Lana’s mother but turned out he could not continue because of the love birds blocking his way to walk further.

‘Single life sucks!’ he mused, but then his lips curved as he saw all the gorgeous men when he went back where the party was in its full bloom. At least being single could still give him the opportunity to enjoy it more and play with a lot of single men.

Then it dawned to him that all the men in the party were also taken, so he drifted back in the sulky mood as he watched Luo enjoy the game she started. He shook his head, watching the woman cheer simultaneously at the two men competing to get drunk. The two single men in the party.

Luo on the other hand was enjoying how Noah was caught off guard and ended up getting to take part in a funny game she thought of. She wondered how hard his tolerance in drinking was. It was just the never dying game of truth or dare. Noah avoided answering all the questions, so he ended up drinking a lot. 

“Oh, good grief. I have to leave, but big bro is still enjoying it.” she heard Brione gasped as she approached to pull his brother.

“Don’t worry, you can leave him. I will take care of him.” Luo assured her with a wink.

Brione nodded and said, “Oh alright. I have an emergency recording and my manager is already outside to pick me up. Please make sure someone will drop him to his house.”

“Don’t worry, dear. I will make sure of it.” Luo responded with a wide smile. Brione thanked her, then bid her farewell to everyone.

After a few more minutes, Luo stopped the game since it was no longer fun with Noah avoiding to answer any questions so she said, “Alright, that’s enough for you two. This is no fun. I don’t want you or Noah to end up in the hospital. You look like you can’t tolerate too much alcohol.”

“What are you saying? No one is down yet!” Noah barked and gulped another glass of beer. How dare that Luo challenge him, saying he was not a man if he could not tolerate alcohol that much! He wouldn’t waste energy to drink, but hearing the other guests laugh at her words was making his blood boil.

“Dude, that’s enough. I want to vomit already…” Daryl complained. He was a heavy drinker, but that Noah was a dope, taking the beer like it was just water. It was a truth or dare game so how come he always chose dare.

“What a stupid and lame game without even a prize!” Noah snarled as he continued to drink. He could not remember when was the last time he got drunk like this, but now he wanted to just drown himself in alcohol because of the conflicted emotions that were going through him.

Luo watched him with squinted eyes. She felt something was wrong with Noah. ‘Maybe it’s not a good idea for him to be at this party?’ she mused with concern.
