Celeste scanned it and, upon seeing Mason’s name, froze. It really was Mason Carter!
She bit her lip. Nothing good ever came from running into Mason.
There was no way she could transfer the money now–if she did, Mason would recognize her immediately.
She put away her phone, “I don’t have that much money,”
Mason:

Mason didn’t want to make things difficult for a waitress. He had spare clothes and could change later.
He was about to let her go when someone shouted, “Where were all the waitresses doing? Check them all, leave no one out!”
A guard approached Celeste, “You, where were you just now?”
Feigning surprise, Celeste replied, “I was just talking with Mr. Carter.”
Mason’s eyes narrowed, a cold glint in them.
This woman knew who he was.
Despite his mask, she had identified him.
This woman was definitely not just a simple waitress.
