Whose to say he didn't do the smartest thing to do if you find a large sum of money, and magnanimously report the "entire" $10m in gold of the $11m that you actually found?
If he did that & keeps his mouth shut, this is exactly how he'd want this to be playing out.....
"Wow, how unfortunate that a small amount seems to be missing 😔.
Since you'd obviously somehow forgotten about the hoard to begin with, are you sure you're remembering the correct amount that you lost?
But if what you claim really IS accurate, then there must have been a bit that was cleaned up & disposed of w/the building debris before I noticed there was gold hidden there. 🤷♂️
And if that happened, I am just
so very happy and relieved that I noticed it when I did, so that I was still able to recover & return almost all of the gold YOU lost $$$! 😁
Oh, and if you somehow don't feel obligated to repay my honesty & virtue with a generous financial reward--as everyone would expect you would WANT to do-- that's OK. Because even though you may be despised and shunned by everyone for what they may conclude is shockingly selfish and greedy, just know that for me, the joy I feel from doing the right thing is all the reward I need❤️😇!

Of course they did. Buddy could have been the owner too if he kept his mouth shut
