Argument gone bad

I have made several attempts to read the Quran( English translation). I am a revert. I get about halfway or so then fall off. My husband has requested that we read maybe a page a day together. Today, i was getting in the shower and he said, you should read the quran after your shower. I got put of the shower, got dressed, he was on the phone. I went in the room and read some pages of the translation myself. We had to run an errand, i needed to go before the place closed, so I asked if he wanted to come. Not even 2 minutes into the car ride, he said, so what happened to reading the quran today? I told him I read a bit before we left. He got angry and accused me of lying and 'sneaking off to read on my own'. That i don't know what i'm doing. He became aggressive in his words, called me a disrespectful names and a liar, and was yelling. Of course I argued back and raised my voice, saying I didn't do anything wrong by reading translation on my own to understand the content. He made a threat of physical harm to me. Turned the car around and said we are going to go home and read now. I was upset and crying and i never said we couldn't read together. He said if you aren't going to read now with me then don't come inside. There is nothing wrong w me reading on my own, that is allowed. Things escalated into verbal and physical abuse when got home, he asked ifIi would read with him, i said if he doesn't yell at me. He didn't like me saying that and was more aggressive with his words. I told him I needed some space away because i was upset. Thats when he came in said he was leaving, dragged me out of the bed and the physical abuse happened. He did not leave. I left the home, while he is still texting me to come home and read with him, after he threatened me, called me names and abused me. Why would I want to do anything with him like this?

Now my problem is the way he has treated me. He thinks the problem is that i don't want to read the Quran. Am i wrong that his behavior is wrong, by getting upset for reading on my own? I know the more serious behavior is a problem but it feels wrong for me to be bullied into reading Quran with him. Now I don't want to read with him for obvious reasons. I'm not sure what i'm looking for here, maybe just support.
