All Chapters of Overflowing Affection From My Billionaire Uncle-in-Law Turned Husband: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

He looked over at Shane and was surprised to see him returning the stare, his gaze sharp as a knife. In an instant, he broke out in a cold sweat, desperately brainstorming solutions in his mind.Just as he was at a loss for what to do, Haley spoke up unexpectedly. "Principal, there's no need to be so tense. There's a sewing kit in the fitting room drawer. I'll just patch it up."With those words, she made her way towards the table. Opening the drawer, she indeed found a sewing kit stocked with threads of various colors. Selecting a white thread, she threaded the needle and began repairing the torn area.It appeared that the fabric had been cut with scissors. Perhaps Riley had acted hastily, or maybe she was trying to avoid being too conspicuous. The damage wasn't extensive, and Haley swiftly stitched it back together.The principal observed Haley's swift and practiced movements, admiration evident in his eyes. Even Shane looked on in awe, his gaze brimming with affection.He had n

"Riley, I'm not feeling well. Let's go back," Xena said firmly, gripping Riley's hand and pulling her up as they prepared to leave.Just then, as the emcee on stage finished the last sentence and prepared to bid farewell, the principal suddenly looked in their direction. "Riley, hold on a moment. I need to ask you something."Riley's body tensed, and she looked to Xena for help. "Xena, what should I do? Do you think we've been found out?"Xena was also filled with fear. After all, the principal rarely paid any attention to them students. But with so many eyes on them, they couldn't pretend not to hear.She could only give Riley a meaningful look, urging her to act accordingly.The principal stood up, gave them a glance, and coldly said, "Come with me to the principal's office."With many students gathered here and the place bustling with activity, it wasn't a suitable environment to discuss matters. Furthermore, the principal had his own ulterior motives.Today, many influential

She hoped to catch Shane's attention this way, but when she looked up, she saw Shane gazing at Haley with a smile in his eyes.Shane didn't even notice Xena's tears. All his focus was on Haley.In Shane's eyes, Haley's irritated expression was downright adorable. He had to make a considerable effort to resist the urge to ruffle her hair.Witnessing this, Xena's tears began to flow uncontrollably.This time, she truly felt a deep sense of injustice.Why was it like this?Wasn't it said that men couldn't bear women's tears the most? She had been crying here for so long, so why hadn't Shane even spared her a glance?Even if he didn't look at her, it would be understandable. After all, Shane was famously cold-hearted. But why was he so fixated on Haley?What was going on between them?She bit her lip, feeling wounded and helpless. "Shane, maybe my sister is still upset with me. Could you help me talk to her and convince her to forgive Riley? She didn't mean to lock my sister up."

Meeting her clear and perceptive gaze, the principal felt as though his thoughts were being read. He chuckled awkwardly twice and echoed Haley's words, "We absolutely won't allow any student to suffer unfair treatment."Haley smiled and didn't say anything more. After exchanging a few brief words with the principal, they left his office together.Haley looked at Shane, her eyes filled with a smile. "Mr. Ford, thank you. If it weren't for you coming to my rescue, I wouldn't know how long I'd be kept in there."Shane stared at her face intently for a long time, then raised his hand and pinched her soft cheek. "What did I say? Already forgotten so soon?"Feeling the warmth of his touch on her cheek, Haley's cheeks flushed red instantly. She took two steps back abruptly, looking at Shane in confusion. Because she was so flustered, even her words became stuttered. "Mr. Ford, you, you shouldn't..."Shane raised an eyebrow, smiling as he asked, "Shouldn't what?"Haley stuttered, "You sh

Zoe was setting the dinner table when she heard his remark. She looked up and playfully scolded him, "You're my husband, of course, I'll take care of you."Joe chuckled heartily, feeling content.Xena sighed with emotion, "Mom, Dad, your relationship is really amazing. When Dad wasn't around when I was little, I always wished for our family to reunite. Now it's finally happened."Joe recalled the past and felt a pang of guilt. He tightly grasped Zoe and Xena's hands, expressing, "I'm sorry for what happened before. I made you both suffer."Zoe shook her head, her eyes slightly teary. "Why bring up the past? It's all behind us now."After dinner, Joe noticed Xena sitting on the sofa lost in thought, her expression somewhat melancholic. He asked in confusion, "Xena, is something on your mind?"Xena snapped out of her daze, a hint of panic flickering in her eyes, but she vigorously shook her head. "No, nothing's wrong."Joe's suspicions were further confirmed by her evasive behavio
