Chapter 3338

After a prolonged silence, Fox forced a smile that appeared somewhat insincere. “Evan, tell me, what can I do to get my things back from you?” Don’t say you don’t remember where you put them. That’s just an excuse, and I don’t believe a word of it.”

Evan looked utterly defeated and replied, “Calling me an ancestor doesn’t help. I genuinely can’t recall. Believe it or not, I really can’t remember. If you want to find my sister-in-law, go ahead. She’s approachable, friendly, and loves making new friends. Girls like you are her favorites. Additionally, my sister-in-law is skilled in martial arts, so when you have time, you can challenge her.”

“However,” he continued, “my sister-in-law is currently pregnant, so you’ll need to wait until my nephew is born before you compete with her. Even if you ask her to bring my things to me, it won’t matter if I can’t find them. The worst that could happen is that my sister-in-law gets upset, and my brother will probably give me a good beating.”

Evan acted like a troublemaker, which made Fox so furious that she felt like jumping up and down, yet she felt powerless to change the situation.

Evan didn’t have her belongings at home.

Fox had already ransacked his house and strongly suspected that Evan had her things hidden on him, making it impossible for her to search him.

If she truly confronted this rogue, he would accuse her of taking advantage of him and demanding accountability. Even if she jumped into the Yellow River, she wouldn’t be able to clear her name.

Evan would definitely do that.

That’s based on her knowledge of him.

After a moment, Fox stood up, preparing to leave.

“Fox,” Evan blocked her path and asked, “Are you leaving?”

“Just like that?”

“You scoundrel! I can’t do anything to you now. Why don’t I just leave? I’m sitting here getting angry with you, but I can’t actually harm you. I don’t want to go against the York family. Evan, if you weren’t Old Mrs. York’s grandson, I would really take you down!”

As Fox spoke, she shoved Evan away.

The force of her push was so strong that he stumbled before regaining his balance.

By the time he collected himself, Fox had already reached the office door and opened it.

“Fox, now that you’re here, let’s have a meal together. It’s on me. I apologize for making you come here for nothing. Let me treat you to dinner as an apology.”

Evan rushed over, attempting to take her hand, but she shot him a glare before he could touch her, causing him to awkwardly retract his hand.

He feared she would truly give him a lesson in the office, leading to his embarrassment in front of his employees.

After all, he was the boss, and that would be incredibly humiliating.

Consequently, Evan didn’t dare to reach for her at all.

“I can’t eat. I’m too angry with you; how could I possibly eat anything?” Fox said, stepping outside while Evan followed closely behind.

“Then just eat your food and don’t look at me,” he replied.

Fox was too indifferent to engage with him.

“Beep—”

Fox’s cell phone rang, indicating a new message. She pulled out her phone as she walked and, after reading the message, quickened her pace.

Evan found himself jogging to keep up.

It was the first time he had seen a girl walk faster than a grown man.

The secretary observed the two with keen interest, as if he were watching a show.
