My brother grew distant.
Then one evening I saw something online.
Nicole—Dalton’s fiancée—had posted a photo of their Christmas celebration in the house I bought.
The caption read:
“Family Christmas at our home. Just us.”
I realized then what was happening.
I wasn’t part of their story anymore.
Later, a colleague informed me that Dalton had even consulted a lawyer about adverse possession—a legal method of claiming ownership of property.
