Could you please not fotos?" She gestured toward the fan's phone. The fan, caught up in excitement, understood and put away the phone. "Sure! But really adore you. You're my idol! Could you please givean autograph? I never expected to run into you today. I'm going to buy a lottery ticket later since today's my lucky day! Hahaha!" Despite showing sreluctance on her face, Claire smiled and signed the autograph for the fan.

'Is that Claire's boyfriend? He's handsome. They look so good together!' she thought.
"Okay, all signed. See you next time," Claire said, handing back the autograph book.
The fan hurriedly took it, not even bothering to take the donuts she had ordered, and squealed as she ran off.
Claire chuckled helplessly and then "Letturned to the stall owner. "Letpay for her donuts. If she comes back to collect it later, please give it to her."
The stall owner smiled. "So you're a big star, huh? It's nice of you to be so good to your fans. You and your boyfriend look very good together, too!" Sherman remained silent throughout, but on the way back to the car with Claire, he suddenly
