All Chapters of Set Path: My Baby is the CEO's Son: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

"Well, I think I will have a busy schedule from now on, maybe we won't be able to meet," she said, trying to avoid the meeting."He will be around for a while, I believe you’ll have time to organize and meet him," Tyler insisted."Yeah, maybe," she replied.Even though she had no intention of seeing him, she wouldn’t say anything at that moment. In the future, when Tyler arranged that meeting, she would come up with an excuse. The last thing she wanted was to see Tácio, especially when her pregnancy would be so apparent.The horses at the racetrack were in position, and the box seats were starting to fill up."Which one did you bet on?" Tyler asked."On none. Once again, I just came to accompany my friend.""Don’t you think it's boring when your friend starts dating? I mean, don’t you think it would be more interesting if, from now on, you went out as a couple?"She understood Tyler's move. She couldn’t deny that he was very handsome and seemed very interesting, yet she wouldn’t risk a

Realizing the foolishness she had done, she quickly bent down, grabbed the papers and the bag, and ran to the bathroom, leaving Ethan confused. In the bathroom, she started vomiting uncontrollably."Why does this only happen when I’m with him?" she asked herself, looking at her reflection in the mirror, trying to think of the excuse she would give when she returned to the table.As she walked back to where Ethan was waiting for her, she wondered if he could have seen the contents of the paper when it fell or if he would ask what it was about. When she approached the table, he was already staring at her with a confused look, waiting for answers."I’m sorry for leaving like that, I haven’t been feeling very well lately," she said, sitting down in the chair."What’s wrong with you? Those papers that fell on the floor, what do they mean?" he asked seriously."What are you saying about that? Those are personal things," she explained nervously."Was that an ultrasound? Rafaela, are you pregn

Upon hearing what her mother said, her heart skipped a beat."Tácio was here?" she asked, trying to pretend she wasn't shaken by her mother's words."Yes, he showed up here last night," said Sueli. "I was a bit surprised since it had been a long time since he came to the inn.""What did he want?" Rafaela asked, in an anxious tone."He told me that he is going to the US for a seminar or something like that. He said he would be there for a while and asked for your address.""Why does he want my address?" she questioned."I'm not sure... he said he hadn't seen you in a long time and wanted to see you again since you're friends.""Friends..." she whispered."See?" her mother said on the other end of the line. "It seems like you still get upset when I talk about these things.""I'm not upset, Mom," she explained. "I just find it strange that he considers me a friend, even though I confessed my love to him.""I know. And that ungrateful man didn't reciprocate," Sueli grumbled."It's not his

After finishing talking to her mother and hanging up the phone, Rafaela burst into tears. Surely, this would be the most difficult decision of her life, having to leave her son after his birth. Even though she fully trusted her family, she knew that a piece of her heart would break with that, but she tried to ignore it as long as she could because thinking about it caused her anxiety and suffering.One day at a time, that's how it should be.It was horrible not having control over things. She was now torn between the joy of motherhood and Ethan's reaction, who, if he found out at any moment about the baby, could cause an uproar. She knew nothing about his personal life, except that he had lived abroad for many years and only returned when his father said he was about to retire and wanted his son nearby, to start familiarizing himself with the company, and to become the future CEO.[...]On Monday, arriving very early at the company, she entered the elevator, pressing the number of the

Eva Thompson's revelation caught her by surprise; she knew nothing about him, but at no time did she consider the possibility that he had a fiancée. She didn't want to ask that question, but before she knew it, she was already confronting him."Why the surprise in your eyes, is there any objection?" he asked, with a strange tone, as if mocking her behavior."No, there's none," she replied, trying to compose herself."Actually, she’s not my fiancée yet, but we are about to formalize the engagement, so it's only a matter of time until it happens.""I understand, sir," she replied, embarrassed. "If you don't need anything else, I'll leave now to go to the flower shop.""You can buy a bouquet for yourself too," he said."Why?" she asked, confused."You said you've never received flowers; consider it a gift from me.""I don't need that," she replied."As you wish," he said. "I’m just trying to be kind.""Thank you for your kindness," she retorted. "But I don't need it.""You know how to dri
