Chapter 176
“I want to know where you went last night,” Shaun repeated himself in a low voice. “Catherine, how dare you? I was only away for one night and you had already spent the night elsewhere.”

Looking at the flurry of emotions that moved across the man’s handsome face like a storm, Catherine shrunk back out of instinct. “Are you making assumptions about me again?”

His body tensed up before he replied impatiently, “If it hadn’t been for the previous misunderstanding, do you think you can still lay here in bed in one piece?”

She lowered her head. “I went out shopping with Freya last night. After that, we had supper and went for karaoke. As we were exhausted, we fell asleep there and only went home after we woke up.”

“Are you sure you’re not lying?” He narrowed his eyes dangerously.

“I didn’t do anything wrong.” She pouted to look more pitiable. “I’m just really stressed out lately. Look, I’m only 22 years old but ever since marrying you, I’ve not been out for karaoke or even supper. I come home right after work at the same time every evening to prepare your dinner. My life is like that of a middle-aged woman.”

A look of displeasure washed over his face. “Are you complaining that your life is boring?”

“No, not at all,” she replied instantly, “But it’s important to have leisure time. Why don’t you try asking Chase?”

“Why should I? Do you think he knows you well?” He threw her a cold glance.
