It seemed she hadn''t expected to see them there, but quickly regained herposure. Melody smiled and greeted, "Grandpa George, my mother and I havee to see you." "Hi George," Melody''s mother called out.
Nina pondered for a moment. George, whom Nash held in such high regard, seemed familiar to the Wace family. There was a sense of acquaintance there.
George smiled and said, "Why have you alle?"
"You''re ill, so of course we all wanted toe see you," Melody replied warmly, cing the flowers in a vase and then giving George a hug. "But Grandpa George, there are other guests here." George said, "Nash is the grandson of myrade. He is like my own grandson."
"I''ve met him," Melody confidently turned to Nash. "Hello, Mr. York, it''s nice to see you again."
George asked, "But weren''t you abroad for a long time? I haven''t heard that you knew Nash."
"Just a few days ago, Dad took me to meet him, and we even had dinner together," Melody didn''t hide it. "Grandpa George, my dad is busy with school matters, so he''ll only be able toe see you in the evening."
"That''s fine," George didn''t mind. "It''s the thought that counts."
Through the conversation, Nina learned that Mr. Wace had served in the military under George''smand. George was known for his kindness and treated his soldiers well. Even now, Mr. Wace hadn''t forgotten George, showing his filial piety.
Seeing them chatting warmly, Nash decided not to interrupt. "Grandpa George, since you have visitors, we''ll take our leave."This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
However, Melody''s mother looked over, her gaze resting on Nash. She was quite enthusiastic and seemed eager to keep him there, smiling and saying, "Nash, why the rush? It''s not often we get to meet like this. Let''s chat for a while. With more people around, it''s livelier, and George enjoys that. Why not stay a bit longer?"
She approached, casting a look at him as if he were her son-inw, expressing her approval. "Nash, you''re really talented, just as my daughter has often said. I didn''t believe it until now. Meeting you today and knowing your connection with George, you must be impressive in many ways."
Upon hearing her mother''s praise, Melody smiled. It was clear to discerning eyes that the Wace family was quite pleased with Nash and wanted him to be a part of their family.
George naturally understood this too. He looked at the mother and daughter duo, realizing their intentions were aimed at Nash rather than at him.
Clearing his throat and stroking his beard, George quickly interrupted their thoughts. "Hey, weren''t you here to visit me? Why are you making other ns?"
The mother and daughter turned

their attention back to George. Melody''s mother replied, "Of course, we came to see you. It just so happened that we ran into Nash. Besides my husband, our family isn''t as acquainted with the York family. It''s good to bond a bit." Content
George understood their intentions well and remarked, "I know the York family is well-regarded, and many girls have their eyes on him. But he''s already married, so you shouldn''t have any ideas."
His words shocked the mother and

daughter duo. "What? Nash is married? That can''t be true. George, you''re not saying this just to favor your own granddaughter, are you?" Melody''s mother was incredulous.
George didn''t like hearing such things. "Am I that kind of person?"
Feeling she might have gone too far, Melody''s mother toned it down. "I was just joking. Don''t be angry."
Nash interjected, "I am married."
Now, Melody''s mother felt
embarrassed She had approached Nash with enthusiasm, wanting to impress him, especially since both her husband and daughter approved of him. But now, her efforts seemed futile. She nced at Melody, silently suggesting she give up.
Melody hesitated for a moment but couldn''t let it go.
Nash spoke again, "Grandpa George, we''ll visit you again next time." "Alright, you two go on ahead," George didn''t insist on them staying. As Nash left the ward with Nina, Melody followed after them. "Nash."
