I heard low groans coming from the background. It was definitely Daniel's voice. Though it kind of sounded distorted for whatever reason.

"W-Wait...so Daniel's home? Didn't he have work all day?" I questioned.

"No. He started feeling sick in the middle of work so he took the rest of the day off and came home straight away." Aunt Linda answered.

She continued, "When the husband is not feeling well, who do you think he's expecting to see at home waiting for him?"

"Uhm...what?" I asked, failing to grasp what she was trying to imply.

"Tch. You're a mindless woman, aren't you? Well then, let me tell this to you straight. A wife is supposed to be at home ready and available to serve her husband at all times. Your poor husband is at home suffering like hell while you're out partying with other men! You should be ashamed of yourself! You have brought shame upon our family by committing such disgraceful acts! You're nothing but a damn whor-"

"THAT'S ENOUGH!" I yelled at the top of my lungs.

Aunt Linda gasped. She immediately stopped talking at the sound of my outburst.

I'm guessing this is the first time she's heard me raise my voice. I could tell it caught her off guard.

From the corner of my eye, I saw the Wanna One members flinch as well. They all stopped what they were doing and turned their heads to look at me with wide eyes.

Jihoon especially looked quicked shocked. But more than that, he looked concerned. I could see it in his eyes.

I gave him a small smile and dismissively waved my hand to let him know I was fine. Jihoon and the other members nodded continued to do what they were doing.

I sighed and focused my attention back on Aunt Linda, "Listen Auntie, I'm sorry about Daniel's condition. If I knew he wasn't feeling well, I wouldn't have gone to this party. But now that I'm already here, I can't just come running home. Besides, don't we have more than thirty maids available at the mansion? Why don't you ask the maids to take care of him?"

"No. That won't be possible. The maids are already pre-occupied with cleaning the garden today. Besides, Daniel won't get better with the help of any maid. He needs moral support from his wife. Only you can take care of him."

I sighed, "Fine. But not now. Just give me a few more hours. I'll be home by then," I tried to compromise.

"Absolutely not!" Aunt Linda hissed. "Young lady, I demand you to leave that party right now and return home at once! Do you understand?!"

"But Aunt Linda-"

"NO BUTS!! Answer my damn question. Will you come home right now? Yes or no?"

"Please understand! I can't just leave! My friend-"

"YES or NO?"

.....

....

...

..

"No." I simply said and hung up the phone.

And with that, I walked back into the living room and returned to my seat beside Jihoon.

Jihoon looked at me with worried eyes, "Hey was everything alright back there? You looked very stressed.."

I smiled and pinched his cheek, "Don't worry Jihoon. Everything's alright. I promise." I said with a confident expression.

Jihoon smiled and snuggled against me once again, linking his left arm with my right arm and resting his head on my shoulder.

Guanlin then grabbed the remote and started the movie once again.
