A man revealed that one of his most prized possessions had disappeared from his house, so he checked the hidden cameras and could not believe his eyes. He tried to stay calm but eventually took action.<\/p>\n
The man shared that his 9-year-old nephew had a habit of stealing things. He used to pick items from shops, and then his parents had to apologize to the shop owners. Fearing that his nephew might steal his engagement ring, he hid it at a place he thought the boy couldn\u2019t reach. However, his plan failed, and his ring disappeared.<\/p>\n
A Redditorposted his story in the \u201cAITA\u201d sub, explaining what happened after watching the hidden camera footage. He had installed a cheap spy camera in his room to keep an eye on his nephew.<\/p>\n
Even after noticing their son stole things from shops, the man\u2019s brother and his brother\u2019s wife refused to do anything about it. They always thought their son forgot to return the items.<\/p>\n
One day, the school principal called the man\u2019s brother and informed him about his child\u2019s stealing habits. The man felt embarrassed but still didn\u2019t teach his son not to steal.<\/p>\n
OP (Original Poster) felt his brother should talk to his son and teach him that stealing isn\u2019t right. However, he never interfered in his nephew\u2019s life until his engagement ring mysteriously disappeared.<\/p>\n
OP revealed his brother had recently moved in with his family because he had lost his job and couldn\u2019t afford to pay rent anymore. While searching for jobs, he earned money as a cab driver.<\/p>\n
OP didn\u2019t have a problem with his brother\u2019s family living with him because he knew they would move out soon. However, things turned different when he saw the empty ring box in his room. He had recently bought a beautiful engagement ring for his girlfriend.<\/p>\n
He had saved $4,000 to buy it to make his partner feel special. Since he knew his nephew was habitually stealing things, he hid the ring in a box under his drawer. His nephew had once taken his wristwatch from his room, so he wanted to be extra cautious.<\/p>\n
He bought a cheap spy camera and installed it in his room facing the drawer. He wanted to protect his precious ring at any cost. One day, he saw the ring box empty and headed to his laptop to check the camera footage.<\/p>\n
He wasn\u2019t surprised to see his nephew digging through his drawers. However, he was furious because this was his last wish. He barged into his brother\u2019s room and asked his nephew to return the ring.<\/p>\n
He told his brother about the camera footage and demanded his ring back. His brother and sister-in-law yelled at the child and asked him to return the ring. The boy said he left it in the guest room, but it wasn\u2019t there when they checked it.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know for a fact he\u2019s lying about not having it because that\u2019s the same thing he said about one of my watches he took then ended up finding it,\u201d the man stated. The next day, his brother told him they couldn\u2019t find the ring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
