I am working in a company for 2 years now. The owner is my father in law. Last year I was having money problems. My father in law trusts me a lot, so I was able to steal some money from the company in a way that nobody knows where that money has gone.

But now I really fell regret on my act and I want to return that money to my boss. But I worry that when my father in law comes to know that I was a thief, it may harm my family relationship. Maybe he can also stuck off me from from the company. So what should I do?

Put the cash in an envelope, add an anonymous note telling of your regret for this theft and drop it off in his mailbox. Don't use a handwritten note, don't drop it off where only few people have access to (like his office), don't send it via mail since it could get stolen.

A case could be made for honesty, but (as you guessed yourself) this could have serious consequences both for your professional and your private life, so I cannot in good conscience urge you to do that.

If you were able to steal money in a way nobody would know where it had gone, can you not reverse the process and add money in the way that nobody would know from where it came?

Add the money slowly until you return the amount you took (plus a little interest).
