Chlance is the nickname given to the relationship between Chance Chancellor and Chloe Mitchell
Chance admitted that he was falling for Chloe, but Nina disapproved, calling her a gold-digger only wanting a Chancellor, to which Chance countered that Chloe reminded him of Nina. After Mac admitted to Chloe that she and Billy Abbott were together, Chloe got a divorce started and Chance felt free to date her. But when Chloe and Billy met to sign the divorce papers, Billy started remembering the good times in the past and backed out making excuses for his behavior.
Chloe decided to use Chance to make Billy jealous and stay with her and Delia. Chloe realized how much she really cared and told Chance she had signed the divorce papers--he was the man she wanted. Chance was cleared of charges, then was shot at while on a date with Chloe.
Chloe wanted him to go to his superiors about it, but Chance was afraid there was something underhanded going on within the department and didn’t know whom he could trust. Riggs was found dead, his body floating in the river, so Chance confided in his boss, Sid Meeks, who told him to drop it -- and then Chance and Chloe were nearly run down by a car. During a romantic moment, Chloe finally admitted to Chance that she was in love with him.
Chloe tried to take Chance upstairs to make love, but though Chance admitted he loved her, he wanted their first time to be memorable. Chance arranged a surprise trip to New York City, but they got stuck in traffic and missed all of the events he planned which were Chloe's favorite things. At the end of the disappointing evening, Chance proposed, but Chloe said no. They returned to Genoa City with Chance still a virgin. But during the annual charity ball, they reached an understanding and went home to make love in Chance’s room with candles to set the mood.
Unfortunately, the next morning Nina returned from L.A. and walked in on them emerging from the shower together in only towels. After Chance left for work, Nina confronted Chloe about trapping her son. Chloe told Nina not to worry, because Chloe had turned down his marriage proposal – which made Nina worry all the more.
Chloe would deliver him a picnic basket of food and try to get him to relax and enjoy himself periodically. Chance, Chloe and Delia and had a close, loving relationship – something completely new to Chloe. Rafe Torres invited his friends to a party at Jimmy's Bar to celebrate the opening of his private law practice. On his arm was his new boyfriend, Tyler. Heather went alone and hit on Chance, causing Chloe to get jealous.
Chloe called her on it and Chance broke up the fight. Chloe explained that she had never had a boyfriend who didn’t cheat on her before, so it was hard for her to trust. After realizing she might lose him, and seeing the perfect couple, Kevin Fisher and Jana Hawkes, splitting up, Chloe decided to accept Chance’s marriage proposal.
Before he could respond, Chance had to rescue Heather. A small party was held at the Chancellor estate for Chance and Chloe to announce their engagement. Ronan arrived at the party and became friendly with Chloe who was very suspicious of him. Nina was appalled and told everyone what she thought of Chloe, so Paul had to take her outside and calm her down. After witnessing how Heather looked at Chance, and how much Nina obviously preferred Heather for her son, Chloe arranged to live in Kevin’s spare room so she could be in the same building in which Heather was living, with Chance staying there nights as her bodyguard.
Chance was not pleased, accused her of just being jealous and tried to convince her to trust him. After a disappointing turn in their case, Heather and Chance commiserated and ended up making love. Chance admitted his infidelity with Heather to Chloe, and she eventually returned Chance’s ring and the engagement was officially broken.
