Answer
Muhtaram / Muhtaramah
In the Name of Allāh, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāh wa-barakātuh.
It will suffice for you to return the money to your relatives without disclosing the reasons for giving them the money. You may even state that you are giving them a gift.
And Allah knows best
