I Lack a Sense of Family With My Family

Hello everyone. I am sorry for that story but that was the only site i found that i could talk anonymously. So as soon as i can:

I am christine and i am 25 y.o. I leave in my house with my two parents and next to us stay my uncle (dads brother ) and his wife with their daughter,natalie ,and one son (my cousins) . We have a really good relationship with all of them (natalie is one of my best friends too.)

The problems started in the 15th of july when i started to do practise in my uncles office so as to have some money for my summer vacation at 25 of August. The problem is that my uncle those 15 days have already groped me 4 times (one today morning ) I dont know what the hell but the third day when i went to the office he said good morning touching me on my shoulder and as he was talking to me he slipped his hand down above my butt and grabbed me for a while letting me silence and frozen. But as i didnt know what to do i continue to talk to him. It has been repeated 3 times those days in different occasions and i really don't know what to do

a. Tell smthing maybe will be followed by fire and argue of 2 families
b. Be patient until 15 of August when i stop working ?

Any expert for advice ? Thanks in advance.

Tell someone you trust such as your mother(since its not her brother) that some uncomfortable stuff has happened with your Uncle. If you want, dont tell her everything, just tell her that your Uncle has made you feel uncomfortable. You can tell her the whole truth if you feel that she is level headed and won't blow it all out of control. Then ask your Uncle to speak privately.
Tell your uncle that while he's a great guy he had better not get too close in the future. Tell him everything is fine as long as he keeps his hands to himself.
If he lies on you to your family then you have already told your mom before hand or who ever you choose the truth so that they can back you up. If uncle stays calm then this can just stop right here with no further issues.
Do not let this continue. Do not let him take power over your body. Fight. You will regret oneday if you allow his behavior and say nothing. Also, he will think that he is not so bad cuz you stand still and dont say anything to him.

@jijijiijill SHE seems really worried about destroying her family and while what you are saying is true life is not that easy. I have alot of first hand experience with sexual misconduct in families.That is why I worded it that way. Only because she does want everything to blow up. She even listed staying on to work for him(surely she would be alone with him at some point if she does stay) as an option.
She can be much harsher but will the family believe her side of things? Will her father hate his brother?
What will happen to her cousin who is also her best friend? That's why I suggest to start with a less extreme approach.
