The private skies above Langwood Hills were beginning to darken as Chance arrived at the gates of The Sovereign Club—the secret retreat known only to a handful of the most powerful families in the country. The estate sprawled over fifty acres of pine-covered mountainside, guarded by men who didn’t ask questions—only obeyed legacy.

The car came to a stop and with a deep breath, Chance made his way into the building, unsure of who the Kings were and why his mother wanted him to meet them.

Walking through the lobby down to the exclusive spot where his mother had told him that the meeting would be held, he passed by a man lighting a cigar by the fountain.

The man raised a brow, clearly not recognizing him. He looked Chance up and down, scoffing at the sight of someone so young and calm entering such a hallowed space.

“You lost, son?” the man said smugly. “This isn’t a college debate team.”

Chance offered a faint smile. “No. Thank you. I’ve got an appointment with….”

    Chance was sitting in the second row seat of the class, casually flipping through his notebook beside Chloe, who wore an amused but proud smile. They had become the talk of the entire campus after the event at the ESU’s art festival, and they were already being tagged “Campus couple.”A few rows ahead, Nora, Sophie, and Beauty were seated, each girl busy with one thing or another. Seeing the privileges that Chloe was enjoying from Chance, they too were beginning to have interest in going out with him, even if they knew it wouldn’t be nice for Chloe, whom they could tell was already catching feelings for him.The murmurs about the bet that Courtney had placed that she’d wear a shirt with “Chance is My King” written on it hadn’t stopped as the students were waiting for her to show up in class and do exactly as she had said.And as though she knew what was being said on her behalf, Courtney stepped into the room right at that moment.For a second, there was silence, and then eyes dropped

    Courtney couldn’t make it through the rest of the night, as what she had thought would be her comeback against Chance had turned out to be her own bitter pill to chew.It was like the universe was just against her, making her appear so unlucky that Chance, who was just an ordinary kid in school, was now on the verge of making yet another groundbreaking headline across all ESU’s social media platforms, while she would remain the laughingstock for yet another consecutive time.And to make matters worse, Chloe had made a VVIP box, and the whole event had turned out to be more about her and Chance than even the great artists, Brenda and Fredrick, who had been invited to perform.As for Vinita, she just kept checking her phone in disbelief while Roy sat beside them, visibly trying to disappear into the night or to wake up in his dorm and see that all that had happened that night was just a terrible nightmare and that Chance hadn’t made the whole campus lose their breath by his excellent de

    The silence that followed the reading of the VVIP invitation was almost too thick to breathe through.Diane Holmes slowly lowered the envelope, her earlier arrogance evaporating like mist before a roaring sun. Her lips parted, but no words came out. She turned to look at Chance—really look at him now—her posture stiffening under the weight of embarrassment.Brenda’s expression shifted too. Gone was the professional detachment of a world-class soprano preparing for her show. What remained was a woman with keen intuition, now piecing something together she hadn’t initially seen.Chance gave them both a small, almost polite smile. “Now… if you’ll excuse me.”He turned, taking a step forward.Courtney’s face was nothing short of embarrassment. She looked like someone who had accidentally opened a cursed scroll. Her voice faltered as she tried to salvage the moment. “That... that must be some kind of clerical error.”Vinita stared at the floor and Roy scratched his head, trying to look any

    The ESU Grand Auditorium had never looked so regal as it was looking as the prestigious hall had been transformed into a world-class concert venue for one night only—the Annual End-of-Year Arts Festival.Outside, luxury cars lined the streets like a billion-dollar fashion parade. Cameras flashed, broadcasting the arrivals to a live university stream with an active comment section already on fire.Courtney Wiley stepped out of her Audi Q5, alongside Vinita and Roy, all three dressed like royalty. Courtney’s fitted emerald gown shimmered under the spotlight as she adjusted her heels and smirked for the cameras. Roy wore a double-breasted midnight tux with polished lapels, while Vinita sparkled in a crystal-encrusted halter gown.They entered with their Prestige Row tickets in hand—priced at a solid $400,000 each, giving them front-facing seats with an unobstructed view just under the elite VIP tier.“Breathtaking,” Vinita whispered as they stepped into the glowing hall. “It’s like walki

    Elite Society University, apart from being the university for the elite, was also known for its rich and engaging programs, concerts, and seminars that were all geared towards molding students into men and women who could stand with their shoulders high, and this year was the Annual End-of-Year Arts Festival hosted by the university’s prestigious Arts Society.Unlike most student events, this wasn’t just another talent night. It was a national spectacle, and this year’s lineup promised to make it unforgettable.Top artists and cultural icons from around the country were flying in. The name that had everyone holding their breath was Brenda Holmes—the country’s most celebrated soprano vocalist, known for a voice so transcendent it was said angels would descend in tears if they heard her sing live. Her 7-minute rendition of “Ave Lux” once silenced a 10,000-seat auditorium mid-breath.Brenda Holmes’ talent had taken her so far and wide that she was now worth over $500 million, making her

    Later that evening, after the storm between Chloe and Courtney had calmed down, Chloe and her friends Nora, Sophie, and Beauty returned to her suite at the Sovereign Tower dorms. The Black Widow bag sat on the velvet couch like a trophy, and all four girls couldn’t help but want to find out if the bag was a fake or not.Even if the tide of the argument earlier had tilted towards Chloe winning over Courtney, she still felt insulted with the way Courtney had tried to ridicule the bag that Chance had given to her, so it was almost losing its value to her.So, she wanted to know by all means if truly the bag was worth keeping or just another piece of trash she had to discard and forget that it was ever given to her.“There must be something that distinguishes the original of such products from the fake, right?” She asked, her hands on her waist.“I guess so.” Nora replied. “There should be something that helps the original producers to maintain their authenticity,” Sophie chimed in.“But
