Chapter 3337
Fox sat up straight, picked up her cup of warm water, took a few sips, and then playfully gestured as if to splash it at Evan.
Evan smiled back at her.

Finally, she set the cup down.
Fox asked, “Stop flattering me. When will you return my things?”
Evan took a seat across from her and replied, “I really don’t remember where I put them. I can’t find them now. When I do locate them, I promise to return them to you personally. Please provide your address and contact information. Otherwise, I’ll just get you a new one and tell you where it came from.”
Fox responded, “A new one isn’t mine; I don’t want it. Evan, I’ve already told you that your method of requesting my contact information is unacceptable; it feels like a thief’s behavior. No, it’s outright robbery.”
Evan offered a half-hearted smile. “Miss Fox, it seems you’ve forgotten how I acquired that item from you. If you hadn’t disrespected me first, I wouldn’t have acted in kind.”
Fox was silent, taken aback.
The two exchanged glances for several minutes.
Eventually, Fox softened her tone and said, “Evan, I was at fault back then. I apologize. Can we agree on this? Please return my things to me. That item is very important to me, even if it may not seem valuable to you. It’s an antique, and although you can buy one now, it won’t compare to yours. Since you understand the value of my belongings, please give them back.”
Evan responded, “Miss Fox, I won’t lie to you. I truly can’t remember where I put them. You know I don’t have a girlfriend, so I’m not sure where I would keep those things. We men…
they are often carelessly discarded, and they genuinely can’t recall where they were thrown.”
Fox responded angrily, “Evan, if you don’t return my belongings, I will go to your grandmother and file a lawsuit against you. Then, I will approach your elder brother, file another lawsuit, and let him teach you a lesson.”
The young men of the York family were primarily intimidated by Old Mrs. York, and secondly, by Zachary.
Everyone was aware of this dynamic. In contrast, they did not fear their parents.
If Fox intends to file a complaint against Evan, it would be wise to go to Zachary.
At times, approaching Old Mrs. York proved ineffective due to her favoritism toward her grandsons.
Additionally, Old Mrs. York was frequently absent and hard to locate. Due to her advanced age, those wishing to lodge complaints were often concerned about caring for her, a responsibility they felt ill-equipped to handle.
Thus, filing a complaint with Zachary was the most suitable option. As long as they took care of their own interests, Zachary would undoubtedly assist his parents and reprimand his younger brothers.
Evan remarked, “Stop threatening to sue me all the time. It makes you seem powerless. Continuously filing lawsuits only highlights your incompetence. Miss Fox, you are not an inept individual.”
Fox replied, “I’ve heard that Miss Serenity is friendly and welcoming. I believe we could become friends. Once we are friends, I will ask her for help in retrieving my belongings.”
Evan was left speechless.
He realized that if Serenity requested something from him and he refused, Zachary would certainly intervene. The thought of facing his serious elder brother made him shiver slightly.
Evan said, “I’ll search for it tonight and see if I can find it. If I do, I’ll let you know to come collect it, or you can come ask every day. My residence is large enough that…
I need to search every nook and cranny multiple times, and it takes a while. I can’t stay up all night to help you find things. When I return each night, it only takes half an hour or an hour at most.”
Fox sensed that Evan simply didn’t want to return it to her.
Why did she get involved with such a scoundrel?
