Rightfully Mine:All Belongs To Nathan Snyder

Fiancée?

Her paring red nails and red lip stain were enough to evoke suspicion in Damon's mind. But she looked at him as if she hadn't seen him in a long time. Perhaps he was wrong.

The woman, Mrs Evans spread her lips into a warm smile and said " I'm glad you're back, Nathan. I always knew you would find your way back"

Mr Evans, who was standing next to her nodded his head in approval

"Since you're here. Stay and join us for dinner. There's more than enough to go around" Margaret suggested as she pulled out a chair for Damon to sit

Mr and Mrs Evans declined " It's Nathan's time. Let him have it to himself. We came as soon as we got the news. We still have a few things to tend to"

"Oh! If that's the case, I shouldn't keep you waiting" Margaret responded politely

" Alright then" Mrs Evans then turned to Damon "Ella would be head over the clouds when she hears you've returned"

Damon pulled his brows together "Ella?" He thought everybody he needed to know of was already listed in the file. Ella was never mentioned in it

" Yes, she'll be back this evening. We'll get going then"

They left the mansion. Inside a white Mercedes Benz, Mrs Evans crossed her leg over the other and looked at herself in the small mirror she was holding

"Honey, are you sure this will not flop? I mean, that boy's actions are completely flawed. I could tell at first glance that he's fake" Mr Evans took off his glasses and looked at his wife

She dropped the mirror and gently tapped Mr Evans's shoulder " My dear husband. Even if you bring a bird that looks like Nathan and tell them it's Nathan, they would accept without doubt. That's how desperate they are to find their young master and keep their so-called bloodline running" She heaved a sigh " Besides, Margaret isn't the one we should be worried about, it's Oliver, Nathan's grandfather,

" I just hope nothing ruins our plans. We've come this far already "

" Relax. Oliver is sick, remember? He has the brain of a child, he acts and responds like a child. There should be no problem from his end. Everything will go well"

"Alright"

Back at Snyder's mansion, after Damon finished his dinner, he toured the mansion but subconsciously stopped in the front of a room with a closed door. He opened the door and entered.

The room walls were filled with pictures of young Nathan and the person Damon suspected to be his grandfather. There was a tall rack filled with books at the corner. The brown centre rug matched the brown curtains

There was a sound of steady breathing that came from the bed. There was someone sleeping on the bed. He had his back towards Damon

As if sensing the presence of another person in the room, the person woke up and turned to face Damon

Damon felt an inexplicable feeling surge inside of him. The man's eyes held a mix of tenderness and joy.

"Nathan?" The old man's voice was a little hoarse.

"Grandfather," Damon said softly as he hurried his steps to the bed. He wasn't exactly sure why he felt emotional. Perhaps it was the way he looked at him

Or maybe, he just missed the feeling of being around family

Damon caught the man's trembling hands that were struggling to touch him. After Oliver felt Damon's skin, he erupted into laughter and clapped his hands rapidly like a child "Nathan is back. Nathan is back"

The overturn of attitude was a shock to Damon. Margaret did mention that he was ill. Perhaps, this was the illness she spoke of

Oliver relaxed back on the bed, draped the bed cover over himself and pouted "Nathan doesn't seem too happy to see Grandpa. Nathan doesn't miss Grandpa at all"

A few seconds passed by before Damon replied, in a low tone "Nathan missed Grandpa. I felt void while I was away from you. Now that I'm back with you, I feel complete"

Oliver removed the bed cover from his body and looked at Damon with all smiles. He pulled Damon's cheeks and laughed. The next second, he fell to the bed and drifted to sleep

Margaret experienced the scene unfold with a smile on her face. She leaned on the wall and watched Oliver and Damon be in each other's company

Throughout all the years Nathan was away, Oliver would lock himself up and refuse to see anybody. He would throw tantrums and get angry at any slight thing. He barely smiled. Every morning, he would look through the window in hopes of seeing his dear Nathan walk back into the house

Things got worse when he got diagnosed with "Peter Pan syndrome". He would throw his food away and request to see Nathan at all times

It was the first time in years that Margaret saw Oliver smile. She had been by his side for a very long time and could tell he was genuinely happy

Damon watched Oliver sleep for a few minutes before he left the room. A feeling of guilt crept into his bones. Was he doing the right thing by filling in Nathan's place?

They seemed like a lovely family that doted on Nathan.

He was about to go back into his room when he saw a young lady barge into the house. She walked so hastily that she almost turned two steps into one. She was dressed in a purple-fitted gown that hugged her curves perfectly and paired it with pink heels. The strap of her Gucci bag was wrapped around her fingers which were adorned with rings

Her light-brown hair was packed up into a sleek ponytail with curls. A closer look and one would see that she looked like a replica of Mrs Evans

She quickly went up the stairs when she caught sight of Nathan and threw her arms over his shoulders. She hugged him tightly for a long time

Damon was shocked at the sudden embrace. He wanted to push her off. He felt so uncomfortable being close to her. But she was glued to him

After she hugged him to her heart's contempt, she released him. She was a being of perfection. Her face was finely sculpted. Coupled with her spotless porcelain skin, she could sway any man

"Nathan" She pulled him into her embrace again. This time around, with tears. Her face was stained with tears

She wiped her face and said with a smile "I missed you while you were away. I feared you would never return"

Damon stared at her and didn't know how to reply. He looked at her for a few seconds before averting his gaze elsewhere. He wasn't exactly sure what it was, but she gave him the ick

Ella noticed Damon's reaction towards her and couldn't help but feel her heart squeeze. She pouted and said "It doesn't matter anyway. Now that you're back, things will fall into place. And, don't worry about catching up on what happened while you were away. I'll be here to help you with that. After all, I'm your fiancee"

All the words she spoke just flew by Damon's ears, except the last sentence.

" Fiancee?" Damon drew his brows together and asked

"Yes, young master. Miss Ella is your fiancee. Both your families sealed a marriage contract between the both of you when you were kids. You haven't forgotten this, have you? Madam never kept this a secret"

Damon gritted his teeth and the temperature seemed to have dropped a thousand degrees.

If truly Nathan had a fiancée , it would mean that he would get married to the so-called fiancée, Ella.

And since Damon was playing Nathan's part. Didn't that mean he would get married to Ella?

The woman never mentioned anything about Nathan having a fiancee in the file. She kept something so important from him

Either ways, there was no way he would get married to Ella
