"I have been carrying the weight of the truth for so long," the old man added wearily. "But not anymore. I can't watch you and Denis end up destroying each other. I know you will hate me for hiding this for all those years. You will never forgive me. That's okay. This is my karma. I deserve it."
He paused before adding, "But I'll still apologize to you. I am sorry, Augustine. Forgive me if you can. You are sensible. That's why I am sending this to you. Denis is impulsive hot headed. I'm afraid he will go kill Gabriel out of fury and put himself into danger. Don't let your brother ruin himself over someone like Gabriel."
