Crystal LI just realized that you might actually get confused by the Elenas deal, but next chapter will have the distinguish. Elena is our Santos Elena, and El is the best friend Elena.

Beta Santos Chapter 12
Angela:I kept watching the emergency room doors. Every time footsteps came close, I sat up, certain someone was coming to tell me El was okay. They passed, and I went back to staring.They'd taken her straight inside. When I tried to follow, a nurse caught my arm. “The doctors need room to work. You can wait out here, please.”A few hours ago, she'd been in my hotel room, complaining about Brad and telling me I was coming to breakfast whether I liked it or not. I'd argued. She'd laughed at me.I couldn't make that woman fit with the one the paramedics had lifted off the road.The engine kept coming back to me. That sudden roar. El's hand on my arm. I hadn't even understood why she was pushing me until I hit the ground. I pressed my palms over my ears, but that only made it easier to hear.“Please,” I whispered. “Please…”I didn't finish. I didn't know who I was asking, and I was afraid of saying the thing I wanted them to prevent.El had helped me leave Darren more than once. She'd f

Angela:Someone was knocking on my hotel door. I hadn’t even opened my eyes yet, and already I wanted them to go away.I lay still, staring at a water stain on the ceiling. Maybe if I waited long enough, they’d give up. The medication Santos had given me had taken the edge off the pain, but my head still throbbed. I felt as if I’d spent the whole night awake.The hotel was cheap, which was about the nicest thing I could say for it. When I’d arrived late last night, the receptionist had taken my money and handed over a key without asking questions. That had been enough.I had stayed here before.By now, I knew which rooms had dripping taps and which ones faced the noisy street. Every time things with Darren became unbearable, I ended up here. They probably should have offered me a loyalty card.The knocking came again. “Angela, it’s me, Elena.” She said, taking me off guard. “Please open the door. I know you’re in there.”I closed my eyes again. Of course, she found this place for me t
Beta Santos Chapter 10
Santos:By the time I got back to the packhouse that evening, I knew I was in trouble with Nikolai.I’d told him I was staying out the night before. He hadn’t asked why. My personal life was mine, provided my work got done.Today, my work hadn’t got done.Elena had taken up most of my morning at the penthouse. Then there was Angela, the human waitress who insisted on leaving even though she could barely stand.Walking through the corridors, I remembered how she’d thanked me before leaving. The bastard who’d attacked her knew where she lived. She’d agreed it was dangerous, then insisted she would be fine.But I wasn’t spending my evening puzzling over a woman I’d met less than a day ago. Marco had confirmed she’d reached another residential building safely. He’d kept his distance and hadn’t seen Darren.She was safe. I should have been able to leave it at that.Folders waited on my desk, with a note reminding me that two reports needed urgent approval. I draped my jacket over the chair

Angela:All the way here, I’d told myself I was doing the right thing. Now that I was outside Elena’s apartment, I wasn’t so sure.She lived with her boyfriend, Brad. She’d offered to let me stay whenever things got difficult with Darren, but I’d never taken her up on it. Visiting was one thing. Asking them to make room for me when I couldn’t even say how long I’d be there was another.I checked my phone, wondering whether I should call first. It was already late in the morning. Brad sometimes worked from home, and I had no idea if he was there. I didn’t want to interrupt anything, much less start an argument because I needed somewhere to stay.My head throbbed beneath the bandage.I’d planned to go home when I left Santos’s penthouse. But the closer I got to my neighborhood, the harder it was to ignore what he’d said.Darren knew where I lived.He knew my work schedule, where I bought groceries, and the routes I took home. He’d been in my apartment often enough to know which windows f
Beta Santos Chapter 8
Santos:Elena stared at me for a long moment before shaking her head.“You’re going to regret treating me this way, Santos.”I didn’t respond, mostly because there was nothing left to say. I understood her reasons for rejecting my proposal, even if I didn’t agree with them, but that didn’t mean I had to pretend nothing had changed between us.She glanced at Angela, who sat quietly on the sofa, before turning back to me. “I hope you know what you’re doing.”“I do.” I said, crossing my arms over my chest as I did my best to ignore the clench that I felt.Elena scoffed. “Of course you do. You always believe you know what’s best for everyone.”I clenched my jaw. Elena never knew when to let an argument end. Usually, I might have argued back, but I’d barely slept and had no patience left. Whatever she felt about me, I wasn’t going to let her take it out on Angela again.“Goodbye, Santos,” she said coldly, and I nodded. She waited, perhaps expecting me to call her back or apologize.I did n
Beta Santos Chapter 7
Angela:I watched as Santos’s expression changed into one that was angry as his gaze went from the ring to the door for a second, making me frown.“Is something wrong?” I asked.He didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he slipped the ring box into his pocket and looked at me.“Stay here.”I nodded as he walked toward the entrance. I wasn’t interested in getting involved in whatever was happening. My head still hurt, and although the medication had eased the throbbing, I was exhausted enough to fall asleep in the chair.The door opened, and a woman’s voice drifted into the living room. “Santos, are you seriously going to keep ignoring my calls? For crying out loud, I expected you to at least come back last night, but it seems that you are choosing to ignore that as well?”“I told you I didn’t want to talk,” he replied.“And I told you we needed to discuss what happened yesterday.”“There is nothing to discuss, Elena.”Elena.I repeated the name silently, wondering who she was. His girlfri
