My Fault: London Plot Synopsis

After Ella elopes with William Leister, a British businessman, without much ceremony, her daughter, Noah, is predictably unamused. She is particularly unhappy about having to leave her life in Florida—which includes her best friend, Haley, and boyfriend, Dan—to move to an entirely new place, London. The fact that she would have to share her new home with William’s son, Nick, whom she has never even met, is an added aggrievance. Yet, her mother insists the change will be good for her, especially after everything that has happened in the past. Consequently, soon enough, Noah finds herself in her new home, a luxurious mansion, where she finally meets Nick.

From the get-go, Nick and Noah get off on the wrong foot and decide it would be best to stay out of each other’s way. Alas, the same proves to be a challenge when they’re living under the same roof and forced to attend the same gala as a family. However, the gala brings some surprises—namely, a fresher perspective on Nick, whom Noah had previously written off as nothing more than a spoiled brat. As it turns out, the boy is a self-made brat with personal wealth accumulated after he designed a successful app at 17. Therefore, Noah attempts to apologize to the boy for pre-emptively judging him when he drives her back home.

Still, their perpetual bickering gets in the way until Noah accidentally strikes a sensitive chord. As such, Nick indignantly leaves her by the side of the road. Even though he sends his friend/valet, Zach, to pick her up moments later, she remains annoyed at his behavior and decides to take him to his after-party destination: a shady club. The night ends with Noah getting roofied and Nick doling out a punch on her behalf before bringing her home safe. Thus, their dynamic continues to be ripe with push and pull. Eventually, things change when an anonymous number tips the teenager off about her long-distance boyfriend and best friend’s affair in the States. This prompts Noah to seek out thrill, accompanying Nick to an underground drag racing event, where the latter ends up kissing her so that she can make Dan jealous.

The night also brings other developments, as Noah recklessly enters a race on Nick’s behalf and invites added heat from his rival, Ronnie. After that night, a tentative affair begins between the pair. As the two learn more about each other’s pasts, their bond deepens. Soon enough, the day arrives for Nick to face off against Ronnie in a bare-knuckle streetfight event. Naturally, Noah is against his participation but tries to support him through it despite her hatred for violence. Yet, in the end, he ends up walking away from the fight to please her and also salvage his chances of remaining in his younger sister Maddie’s life. Inevitably, this doesn’t go over well with Ronnie, who swears to take revenge.

Nevertheless, as Nick walks away from his bad, dangerous habits, it opens up room for him to pursue his budding romance with Noah. Despite the complications that their situation as stepsiblings presents, the duo continues exploring their chemistry. Even so, they face barriers in their path—particularly Nick’s penchant for violence and Noah’s loathing for it. Yet, they can’t stay away from each other’s orbit for long and eventually fall in bed with each other. However, the next morning, a startling reckoning awaits them as the pair’s respective enemies make a move.

My Fault London Ending: Why was Noah’s Father in Jail? What Does He Want?

Noah’s father, Travis, looms over the narrative from the beginning, even before he has a physical presence in the story. He’s part of the reason why Ella is so optimistic about the move to England, especially in terms of a new start that it might bring for her daughter. Initially, Travis and Noah had a close relationship. In fact, everything that the teenager knows about cars—from mechanics to driving—comes from her father. Nonetheless, her memories of this relationship are perpetually tarnished by Travis’ eventual actions.

As Noah grew up, Travis’ alcoholism worsened, branching out to a pill addiction. Over time, it got to the point where he became physically abusive. Soon enough, Travis’ abuse stemmed toward his daughter, leading to a traumatic incident in which the teenager had to lock herself in a closet in an attempt to hide from her father’s wrath. Six months after the incident, she testified against her father in court, ensuring that he was imprisoned for his abuse against her and her mother. Nonetheless, despite his fate, the trauma lives on in Noah, who frequently has panic attacks triggered by claustrophobia and violence.

For the same reason, Ella and Noah are both hoping to turn over a new stone with the move to London. However, unbeknownst to them, Travis managed to follow them overseas. Therefore, since Nnoah is unaware of his release from prison and broken parole, she doesn’t think much of it when William sends them away to a hotel in light of a dangerous development at the Leister residence. Earlier in the morning, Lion—Nick’s close friend—had been found beaten and stuffed in a car, seemingly as a warning. Initially, Nick assumes Ronnie has something to do with it.

Yet, Nick learns a different truth when Detective Sato, who has secretly been working with William and Ella, reveals that Travis is actually in London. Furthermore, he’s currently working with Ronnie, who manages to kidnap Noah from the hotel. Inevitably, the ransom call comes from Travis, who wants a million dollars in exchange for Noah’s safety. All this time, her father had only been searching for a way to exploit his daughter—and Ella’s marriage to William presented the perfect opportunity.

Does Nick Save Noah From Her Father?

Despite being Noah’s father, Travis poses a very real threat to the young girl’s life. The teenager is already perpetually anxious and scared around her father due to his past abuse. Therefore, his recent abduction—in which he makes it clear he’s only interested in extorting money out of his relationship with Noah—becomes an incredibly dangerous scenario for her. Additionally, Ronnie’s inclusion in the equation also complicates matters. Unlike Travis, his main motivation remains his longstanding rivalry with Nick. Consequently, he has no qualms about keeping Noah alive to get his revenge.

Fortunately, while Travis holds his daughter, hostage, William works with the cops to meet his ransom amount and save his stepdaughter. Likewise, Nick tries to find a quicker solution and realizes that he can track Ronnie through the car that the other man stole from him earlier. As a result, Nick drives down to Ronnie’s hideout as soon as possible. This results in a showdown between the two rivals, during which Travis manages to escape with his daughter. Still, Nick is back on his tail as soon as he incapacitates Ronnie. Consequently, a high-speed chase launches in the streets of London.

Travis forces Noah to be behind the wheel, instructing her to outrun Nick. Even though she’s a fierce driver and maneuvers tricky spots with ease, Nick eventually catches up to them through a shortcut. In the end, as the boy cuts Noah’s car off, it results in a massive accident with the two cars colliding with one another. Thus, Travis finds himself cornered, with the police descending on him from all sides. Still, he tries to fight for his freedom by holding Noah hostage. However, the teenager doesn’t let herself become her father’s victim again. She waits for her moment and shoves at him when he’s blindsided. Ultimately, as she runs over to Nick for safety, the cops shoot her father, finally bringing an end to his torment.

Does Nick Die?

Nick puts himself in dangerous scenarios throughout the story. Things like drag racing, underground fights, and rivalries with criminals have long been an unhealthy coping mechanism for the boy. Yet, true danger only begins circling him once he embarks on the self-appointed mission to save Noah from her father’s clutches. His initial hand-to-hand combat with Ronnie results in a severe stab wound that Nick ignores in favor of chasing Travis and Noah down. Consequently, the final crash, which flips his car entirely upside down, further aggravates that injury.

Therefore, even though Noah survives Travis’ scheme, Nick’s fate becomes more ambiguous. In the aftermath, authorities rush to his side to provide him with medical aid, but the gravity of his wound still suspends the moment in doubt. Fortunately, as the epilogue arrives—showcasing Noah’s life six months after her father’s attack, answers about Nick’s condition arrive. Ultimately, Nick survives the stab wound and emerges on the other side with a prominent scar on his abdomen. Even so, he’s entirely healthy without any other visible signs of distress.

Do Noah and Nick End Up Together?

While Noah’s backstory with her father and Travis’ nefarious scheme adds some riveting drama to the narrative, the story’s central focus remains on Noah and Nick’s romance. From the get-go, neither party seems particularly concerned with the fact their relationship would be a forbidden taboo on account of their parents’ marriage. The pair sustains a strong connection, which they aren’t willing to give up simply due to its potential for complications. Still, there are other obstacles they have to work through. Most prominently, Nick’s compulsion to violence causes the biggest hurdle in their relationship.

Due to Noah’s brutal past with Travis, she isn’t willing to entertain any violence in her life. However, Nick has learned to rely on it as an unsustainable outlet for his own issues. Yet, Noah’s introduction to his life urges him to leave these old habits behind. She makes him see the importance of keeping Maddie in his life—something he risks by participating in underground fight clubs, which his mother detests. On the other hand, Nick understands Noah in a unique way, offering her a connection she has been missing so far in her life. Therefore, even though she tries to stay away from him, it becomes evident that any such attempts would be futile.

As such, Noah and Nick decide to pursue their relationship in the end—even if they have to hide it from their parents. Unlike their respective kids, William and Ella are evidently concerned by the taboo nature of the relationship between the duo. For the same reason, they aren’t even willing to entertain the possibility of something romantic happening between them. Therefore, it seems that the duo’s love story has ended in a hopeful yet precarious place for now.
