Chapter 3 Things Fall Apart Summary

During my night shift, I refused to help my adopted sister administer fluids to her patient. After the wrong drug is given, I watch a seven-year-old boy die after he suffers an allergic reaction right before my eyes. In my previous life, the boy's family stormed the nurses' station after I'd just finished administering his IV medication. The next thing I knew, I was violently beaten up. "You poisoned my grandchild by giving him the wrong medicine!" But the fluid I introduced into his bloodstream was a simple glucose solution. It couldn't have led to such a disastrous outcome. When I was on the brink of passing out, someone called the police. I thought help had finally arrived, but I was sorely mistaken. The police officer—my brother—pinned me to the ground. "We found your prints on the drug vial. You're a murderer." Then, my childhood friend, a forensic pathologist, held up an autopsy report and accused me of the same crime. "The patient's time of death is around 5:00 am. That's the same time you administered drugs into his system." Unable to prove my innocence, I was ultimately beaten to death by the boy's enraged family members. My brother and my childhood friend had always loved me. Even on the brink of death, I couldn't understand why they would do this to me. Now, I open my eyes and find myself back on the night it all began.

Sanay na siyang pasanin ang title na “walking controversy,” but despite the headlines and chaos, isa lang ang hindi maikakaila—she owns the runway.

Falling means losing, and she never loses. Pero paano kung ang larong iniisip nila’y maging totoo na? Sa isang mundong puno ng mata at kontrobersya, is it possible to find something real?

Ethan Gibson, un multimillonario, estaba decidido a romper la maldición de su familia: terminar sin heredero. Se gastó una fortuna reclutando a diez "candidatas a ser madre" y nos llevó a todas a su isla privada, la Isla Brumazul. El día que llegamos, Ethan lo anunció ahí mismo, delante de todas: —La que dé a luz a mi primer heredero será la futura señora Gibson. La codicia creció más rápido que el deseo. En apenas unos meses, varias mujeres anunciaron sus embarazos con orgullo, casi presumiendo. Pero las tiraron al mar, a ellas y a los bebés que llevaban dentro, y las dejaron como alimento para los tiburones. La razón era simple: las habían encontrado con otros hombres. Cada noche, los gritos que subían desde el muelle no me dejaban dormir. Yo estaba aterrada, porque también había tenido un solo encuentro accidental con Ethan y ahora estaba embarazada. Cuando por fin llegó el día y vi lo que había parido, todo se me fue a negro. Esas mujeres que terminaron como alimento para los tiburones, al menos, llevaban bebés humanos. Yo había parido tres cachorritos diminutos.

The Shermans are the richest family in town, and both of the Sherman daughters are about to get married on the same day. I, the older of the two sisters, am about to marry Andrew Hammond, a wealthy scion and the man I've loved for many years now. Meanwhile, my younger sister, Celine Sherman, is set to marry the heir of the Wright family. The upcoming wedding fills me with joy and anticipation, but suddenly, Andrew disappears for three whole days. When I go to confront him about it, I end up overhearing a conversation between him and his friends. "On the wedding day in three days, you guys must ensure that the wedding cars are switched, so that it's Celine's car that comes to the Sherman residence instead. "That illegitimate son of the Wright family is a cold, heartless man. I can't let Celine suffer by marrying him!" "Relax," one of his friends replies. "We've made all the arrangements with the drivers and everything. But what about Joanna?" Brimming with confidence, Andrew declares, "The Sherman family has the Wright family's business by the throat, and everyone knows that Joanna is mine. There's no way the Wright family would dare to do anything to her. "When the time comes, I'll send Celine off and bring Joanna back for the wedding ceremony. I'm sure the Wrights won't dare to say a single word." The initial shock leaves me on the verge of a breakdown, but eventually, it morphs into the stillness of despair. In the end, I decide to go along with the plan, letting Andrew and Celine get their happy ending. Thus, when Andrew proceeds with the next part of his plan and arrives to pick me up, all he's greeted with is the sight of my cold dead body.
