A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 148

Feena was on her way back to campus when her phone rang.

"Guess who I just saw?" The excitement in Leila's voice was impossible to miss.

Before Feena could respond, Leila added, "Soul! I just saw Soul! The real Soul! And he's even hotter than I imagined! He's so much more attractive in person. And get this—he's actually really sweet! He's literally the perfect boyfriend material. I think I'm in love."

Hearing that Soul had actually shown up, Feena's heart skipped a beat.

This meant the whole "mystery star" hype wasn't just some marketing stunt by Starlight Entertainment—Soul was really here.

Suppressing her own excitement, she laughed. "Damn, girl. You sound thirsty as hell. Why don't you just go shoot your shot? Who knows? Maybe he'll fall for you."

Leila sighed dramatically. "Yeah, right. A guy like that? He's gotta have a girlfriend already. Probably a whole lineup of them. I'll just admire from a distance. No point in dreaming about something that's never gonna happen."

Some people were just out of reach—meant to be admired from afar, never to be touched.

If Jack had heard this conversation, he would've laughed bitterly. Not only was he single, but he had also been brutally rejected multiple times—by Feena, by Anna, even by Bella. His track record with women was tragic at best.

Outside, the frenzy over Soul's appearance was reaching new levels of chaos.

Meanwhile, Jack followed Felix into the stunningly decorated rehearsal hall.

The stage was immaculate, with state-of-the-art lighting and sound equipment. The whole place buzzed with activity as crew members rushed around, making final adjustments.

At the front of the room, a group of established industry veterans sat together, waiting for their turn to rehearse. Big-name stars, top-tier producers, and executives—the kind of people most musicians only ever saw on TV.

Felix took Jack around, introducing him to everyone.

The moment these industry professionals realized who he was, many of them were shocked to find that Soul was a young man.
