Begonia palmata D.Don ??
I don’t know what this is. However it is not B. palmata.
The fruit shape is very close to B. palmata or its related sps.
Any matches to the sp. listed in the link :

Yes, it is in the same section (Platycentrum), but without a geographic origin it is near impossible to identify.
It was a potted plant. Maybe they have brought it from abroad.
