Chapter 536 Sneaking Into the Olsen Residence
Josie walked in, wearing a uniform several sizes too big for her.
“Hold on there!” the guard demanded, surprised to see delivery food at such a lavish
event.
“Delivery,” Josie announced, her voice barely audible through her mask.
“Hand it over,” the guard said, glancing at the receipt on the paper bag without looking
inside.
Josie’s heart was pounding so hard that she thought it would burst out of her chest. She
had written Arnold’s name as the buyer when she ordered the delivery food.
She knew that Arnold would definitely attend Summer’s birthday party.
The guard dialed the phone number written on the receipt.
Josie’s heart was in her throat as she clutched her phone. She was ready to make a break
for it if the guard didn’t let her in.

After a moment, Arnold answered the call. The guard’s tone changed to one of polite
deference as he said, “Mr. Carter, there’s a delivery for you. I’d like to confirm with you if it
is yours.”
Josie squeezed her eyes shut and inhaled deeply.
“Alright, sure,” the guard responded, hanging up the phone and looking at Josie.
Her hands were sweating profusely as she waited for the guard’s response. “Why would I
lie?” she asserted calmly.
Josie was surprised when the guard nodded at her. “He’ll be here shortly. You can stay here
and wait,” he announced.
Sure enough, Arnold was there.
After a few moments, Arnold emerged from the crowd. He was dressed casually, in a
youthful style. He wore a sweater and jeans, and he also had a chain around his neck.
Arnold walked towards Josie and circled around her, his eyes twinkling with amusement as
he sized her up Josie kept her head down, her face hidden from view.
“Delivery?” Arnold asked with a smirk. “Pass it here.”
Josie handed him the paper bag and held onto his index finger with a firm grip. Her eyes
grew soft as she gazed up at him

Arnold paused and pulled down her mask. “Ms. Delivery Lady, you sure have some
impressive tricks up your sleeve,” he said amusedly, raising an eyebrow at her.
As soon as she raised her head, she saw Arnold opening the paper bag and taking out the

Josie quickly stopped him. That’s enough!” she exclaimed.
Arnold glanced at her, a smirk playing on his lips. “You must really trust me to put my
name on the bill,” he responded.
She was at her wit’s end, and this was the only option left. Josie didn’t bother to explain
herself as she continued to pack her things. “Is Zach here today?”
Arnold stayed silent, his mouth full of mangoes. “No,” he mumbled.
Josie’s face clouded over. “What about Laura?” she asked.
She’s not here either,” Arnold said, his voice flat.
Five minutes passed, and Arnold finally understood Josie’s concerns. His face turned dark
as a thundercloud. “Wait here,” he said. “I’ll go around and find them.”
Josie grabbed his hands abruptly. “Don’t go by yourself,” she said. “It’s too dangerous. Let
me go with you.”
He took her around the corners of the residence and passed by the garden where
everyone was gathered. Josie kept her head down the whole time to avoid attracting
attention. Suddenly, they heard someone call out, “Arnold.”
They stood frozen on the spot, not knowing what to do next.
