You can use below code.

CloudFile file = yourDirectory.GetFileReference(fileName);
file.FetchAttributes();
DateTime lastWriteDate = DateTime.Parse(file.Properties.LastModified.ToString());

Finally got the answer(simply last modified date of all files,not the specific latest file).

//Code to get the last modified date

CloudBlockBlob blockBlob = Container.GetBlockBlobReference(blobName);
blockBlob.FetchAttributes();
var lastModifiedDate = blockBlob.Properties.LastModified;
Console.WriteLine(lastModifiedDate);

As vivek mentioned, we can use LastModifyedUtc to get the lastest modified file. We can also use webjob blob trigger to monitor the latest change, please have a look at my reply in your previous post.
