Chapter 480 There Was No Other Way
"Forge my responsibilities, you say?” Suddenly, Idris''s face darkened, and he looked at Madam Young. “Grandma, so you do know about forgoing
responsibilities, hun?”
Idris'' words left Madam Young at a loss, and she stared at him in confusion for a while, unable to respond.
Idris seemed to be in a bad mood. He stared intently at Madam Young and continued, "Grandma, let me ask you something. Why did my father leave
the Youngs all those years ago?"
I had a bad feeling about this.
Madam Young also froze, and she did not rush to respond. Instead, she turned her gaze toward me. I knew she suspected that I had told Idris about
what happened ten years ago.
I was puzzled because I had not told Idris about anything.
Seeing my confused look, Madam Young furrowed her brows and turned back to him. She began to speak hesitantly, "Iddy, didn''t I already tell you
before? Your father, he...”
"He wanted to go out on his own and explore the world, so he went on to disappear for many years, right?” Idris interrupted her. He looked at her
pained expression and continued, "Grandma, it''s been ten years. Are you really not nning to tell us about what happened back then? Are you
going to let the Young Corporation. which our ancestors founded honestly, continue to thrive while hiding the truth?”
From Idris''s reaction, I could almost be certain that he now knew about what happened ten years ago.RêAdt??St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Madam Young looked at him. Her face was now pale, and her lips were trembling slightly. Her voice was hoarse as she said, "Iddy, you..."
“Over a hundred lives, Grandma. Do you really think that by kneeling in your prayer hall every day, being a vegetarian, and reciting prayers, you can
absolve those lost souls?" Idris looked at her, his expression trembling
I could probably understand his feelings. From a young age, he was taught that the Youngs’ business was built on honesty and integrity. He had
witnessed his grandfather''s rise to sess through legitimate means. Although there might have been some questionable practices in the business
world, they never involved the loss of human life. The incident from ten years ago took the lives of over a hundred innocent vigers andborers who
had toiled tirelessly in the mountains. They might have believed, even in their dying moments, that their deaths were just unfortunate idents
simply a twist of fate.
Only the true culprits knew that their greed had caused so many deaths. All of it could have been prevented, but for the sake of wealth, they callously
disregarded the lives of hundreds.

It was all done stepping on a pile of bones. It was undoubtedly the most ironic and yet the most realistic oue.
With the conversation having reached this point, it was clear that Idris was now aware of everything.

Idris slumped onto the sofa and gazed wearily at Madam Young. He said, "Grandma, it’s toote for ‘out of sight, out of mind.’ What happened back
then might bemen knowledge soon.”
Madam Young froze, her entire body tensing up. She looked at Idris, and her voice trembled as she asked, "What...do you mean?"
Idris closed his eyes in despair and said, "Someone has all the information about what happened at Snakehead Mountain that year. It''s the legacy left
behind by Noah Lanier."
"This..." Madam Young panicked, her face filled with anxiety. She stammered, "But your grandfather handled everything back then. How could there
still be...”
Hearing this unexpected news, Madam Young became overwhelmed and fainted on the spot.
Immediately, everyone started to panic.
Idris reacted swiftly, carrying Madam Young while rushing outside. He instructed Mr. Zachary to contact a doctor.
I could not help but sigh softly and ask, "Why put yourself through this?”
He looked at me with deep, dark eyes and silently walked over. Then, he pulled me into his arms and hugged me tightly, looking utterly drained. "I
can''t think of any other way.”
