Chapter 160: I carry this mark
Gabriel pushed open the door of the private lounge where Louis and Karmen had been waiting for him.
The two of them stood up and bowed to him.
Gabriel took his seat, telling them to sit. "Why did you lie about not having the information?" he inquired.
"Why do you think I’ve the information?" Louis arched his brow.
"I chose you to fulfill this task for a reason," Gabriel replied. "Let’s not talk in circles and give me the information for which I’ve come here," he asserted.
"The tiny sketch of a tattoo you gave me is a mark, which appears after someone is cursed," Louis repeated the same words that Glenice had told him. "The person also mentioned that it’s not an ordinary curse. It’s tied to destruction... and pain. The cure to invoke this curse has been lost for centuries. Also, Prince Gabriel, if someone possesses this mark, then they must’ve done something bad in their past life."
As Louis revealed the truth about the mark, Gabriel’s facial expressions remained neutral. His mother always talked about the destruction that he would bring. ’Then, why is the mark tied to Amelie? Could it be that there were twin marks? Perhaps there was a mark somewhere that I’m not aware of. But where?’
Louis, on the other hand, observed Gabriel’s reaction. ’He looks calm to me. This man is difficult to read sometimes,’ he thought.
"Where did you find this information, and from whom?" Gabriel asked.
"I’ll tell you if you give me something in return," Louis replied.
Gabriel cocked an eyebrow, clasping his hands together. "And what do you want?"
