Frank frowned at the sight of him.
"I am leaving," said Corbett while looking at him. "I have a deal to make."
"You don't have to tell me everything," Frank sneered. He took out the key and opened the door without looking at him.
"It's dangerous this time."
"Every mission is dangerous, isn't it?" Frank glanced at him and continued, "I will only believe what you said if you don't come back this time."
Corbett lowered his head and smiled, a subtle pain flashed in his eyes.
All of a sudden, he took off a string of Buddhist beads from his hand and took advantage of Frank's unpreparedness to put it on his hand. "This string of Buddhist beads was given to me by my father. It was said that it was from Mount Wutai in China. I've been wearing this since I was a child."
Frank frowned. When he was about to give it back, Corbett grabbed his arm.

Under the dim light, William's face was very alluring. He drank the whiskey one after another, as if he could not get enough.
William did not know how long he drank at the bar. Suddenly, he felt an insatiable urge to see Mary.
Shaking his head, he headed back to the hospital.
In the hospital, Victor and Archer visited the two kids. Elissa clung to Victor like a glue, and they played together. After an hour of playing, the two kids got too tired and fell asleep.
