Though Nina hadn't lived through the cruelty of that era, she could still recognize that Grandpa George's most glorious moments were in his youth. Even as he aged, he still harbored a desire to contribute more to the country.
Grandpa George's eyes welled up as he spoke. Nina listened attentively, noticing the scars left on his legs from gunshot wounds, which revealed the hardships they had endured.

"You shouldn't be too complacent," Grandpa George cautioned.
Suddenly, he chuckled, "But there's no shortage of talent. Nash is a prexample. Achieving feats at such a young age. It's all thanks to his grandfather. He insisted on Nash returning hto inherit the family business. If he had stayed with me, he might have been even more remarkable than I was in my youth." This remark caught Nina off guard.

Changing the subject, Grandpa George continued, "Nina, I confide in you as if you were my own, but please don't discuss this with others." "Okay," Nina agreed.

When Grandpa George saw a child with candy, his eyes lit up with longing. Seeing a vendor selling candy floss outside, she went and bought a pack. Candy floss was easier for the elderly to consume. Grandpa George was even happier now, taking the pack of candy floss from Nina's hand with a smile.
"Nina, we haven't been together long, but you already know I love sweets. You're like my own granddaughter!" he exclaimed.
Nina reminded him, "You can have it once in a while. But you can't have any for the rest of this month." "Okay, got it," Grandpa George agreed.

However, in a quick glance, she noticed Nash hurrying off. Was he preparing to leave the hospital? Not seeing Linda, could her injuries be severe?
Nina frowned as she watched him go in the direction of the obstetrics and gynecology department. If Linda was just injured from the accident, she would likely be in the orthopedic department, not there.
