"I checked."
Why did this woman have an expression as if he did something extremely outrageous? If she hadn't made a phone call behind his back, would he have looked into her call records?
As it turned out, she had indeed lied.
Since she lied, what was wrong with him checking her call history?
Enna Clark couldn't believe that Baron Lawrence had checked her call history and did so with such righteousness and as a matter of course. Suddenly, she felt a sense of oppression, just like his ubiquitous control when they were in Linton City, making it hard for her to breathe.
She forcefully held back the rising wave of anger, her lips whitening, and looked into the man's eyes, "I did talk to Wyndham Howell last night, but he only called to tell me about the adult education courses. It was my fault for not telling you the truth. I didn't mean anything by it; I was just afraid you'd misunderstand again like last time."
