Oh Julie, being a caretaker is hard. Being a caretaker for an ungrateful or angry loved one feels impossible some days, doesn't it?
My guess is that the anger was because you weren't there when he needed you, made worse by low O2, which causes muddy thinking. And maybe a little sundowner syndrome - typical in dementia, where evenings are worse than days.
I can guess his response, but next time you are having a day or meal out, maybe you could offer to have someone come to visit while you are gone. That way, neither he nor Lady Gray will be lonely.
You are often in my thoughts, please continue to take care of yourself.
