As Rita observed Sherman's focused expression, she could not help but wonder if his interest was genuine. The fact that this man claimed the seat was reserved for him by Claire raised some doubts in her

'Are they in a romantic relationship?'

The thought surprised Rita. It was not entirely implausible. The fact that he was able to get Claire to reserve a seat for him hinted at his significance. What luck, she had stumbled upon such a big story! Her colleagues would surely be in awe of her if she were to bring this news back. It was totally a headline-worthy scoop!

With a plan forming in her mind, Rita decided to start with this man beside her. Perhaps he could serve as a breakthrough point.

As the music started, Claire gracefully glided onto the stage from the left side like a graceful swan. Even Rita could not resist holding her breath, overwhelmed by the visual impact Claire's performance had on her, which surpassed anything she had seen in online videos.

"Oh, my..." she exclaimed, and the surrounding audience did the same. At that moment, she could not help but observe the expression on Sherman's face, only to see a slight smile curling up at the corners of his mouth.

'Oh, so he does know how to smile!' thought Rita. She had thought he had a poker face.

He seemed genuinely proud of Claire, which made Rita even more convinced of their relationship.

Having studied abroad and attended numerous theaters and Broadway performances, Rita had experienced her fair share of stage productions. Thus, even though Claire's performance had left a strong impression on her, it was only fleeting.

Afterward, she did not show much excitement. However, it was understandable that such a talented dancer was being highly praised in the country, where good dancers were rare.

Claire's graceful movements were sharp and precise, but the length of her arm did not seem particularly advantageous, making some of her movements appear somewhat awkward. However, the choreography of the dance was very ingenious, which Rita found quite fascinating to watch.

Two hours flew by in the blink of an eye, and she managed to capture many captivating photos of Claire leaping into the air, truly a delight to watch.

By the time the curtain fell, Rita had packed up all her equipment. She could not wait to rush forward and interview Claire.

Having persevered on stage until the

very last second to deliver a great performance to the audience, Claire was exhausted. After stepping off stage she did not even feel like smiling. The staff was well aware of her habits and knew not to bother her at such times.

However, there was one exception.

She had just turned to look at the staff when they responded knowingly, "Mister Sherman is waiting for you backstage."

Claire nodded. She did not even bother to change out of her stage costume as she proceeded lightly to the backstage dressing room.

At that moment, the staff asked

again, "Miss Claire, there's a reporter

named Rita Bourne waiting to

interview you. She's from New

Capital Times. Would you like to see her?"

New Capital Times was a top-tier newspaper in the country, originally focusing only on mainstream

interviews. However, with the rise of online media, it had transformed itself and by expanding into the entertainment sector.

It would be excellent to be featured in this publication since it would be beneficial for their publicity.

Claire was even smiling as she glanced lightly at the staff and said, "You should know my style."

The staff quickly lowered their head. "I'm sorry."

He simply felt that forgoing an interview with New Capital Times would be a shame.
