A colleague (who currently works at the company) told me that he is creating a new business that would be a direct competition of our current company.



He also asked me to help him with a job for his new business due to my skills, but I rejected that proposition.



I just want to forget that matter and never discuss it, but what should I do?
Thank you

You should forget that matter and never discuss it. You are not responsible for the decisions of your friend. It is not your solemn duty to report this to anyone. Just go about your day.
