Unfortunately, I was sitting on him at the time of his death.

I was hired to guard the house. I sat on the swivel chair and began to keep excellent guard.
Suddenly the chair fell apart without any provocation on my part.
He simply had enough of his days. And even before that, he was on the verge of dying. But I was lucky that I myself was chosen to sit on his lap at the time of his death.
 
I don't want to fix it, of course I don't like to announce that I broke it. And don't worry, there are plenty of people to blame.
 
Should I notify?
In any case, the damage is probably minimal, close to the amount of carelessness on the entire island.
