Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1162
Ethan’s father gave the order.
The next day, the cremation ceremony was held for Ethan.
Catherine saw him for the last time. It was very startling, but she was not petrified. She felt nothing but grief. The
one whom she had been calling ‘ Brother Ethan’ since she was young had left just like that.
Why was a human’s life so fragile?
After Ethan was cremated, Catherine did not go to the office for three consecutive days. She was like a tortoise that
was hiding in her shell, not going anywhere.
On the fourth day, she suddenly received a strange call. “Is this Aunty Cath? I’m Tracy.”
“Miss Steele…” Catherine was at a loss. She thought Tracy was going to cause her trouble.

Stunned, Catherine became instinctively alert. However, as soon as she heard Tracy mentioning that they would
meet downtown, she banished her doubts.
Soon, she drove to the cafe and entered the private room.
Tracy was sitting at the table. She was wearing a pair of sunglasses and a cap. As she had cut her hair short and
heavy makeup on her face, Catherine could barely recognize her.
“Why did you want to meet me?” Catherine sat opposite her. She had always thought of Tracy as a quiet woman,
but she could feel that Tracy was not despicable. Despite knowing that Catherine was previously in a relationship
with Ethan, Tracy had never envied her nor did she join Sonya to badmouth her.
“Look at this.”
Tracy passed her phone to Catherine.
Catherine clicked it open. It was a screenshot of a message that had not been sent out. [Watch out…]
One could tell that it was an incomplete message as the word ‘Lyo’ could be seen in the messaging box a t the
bottom.
The draft of the message was meant for Catherine.
“This was Ethan’s last activity found in his phone. The police spotted the phone in the bush after the incident, but
they didn’t know the password to his phone. After I got his phone, I switched it on and unlocked it. This screenshot
was displayed on the screen.”
Tracy gazed at her with mixed feelings. “I think Ethan might’ve been aware of something during the incident. He
could’ve realized that he was going to die, so he wanted to text you to warn you for the last time. But it was too late
when the car began to catch fire. Hence, he tossed his phone out of the window.”
Catherine’s long lashes quivered.

“Why is it a screenshot?” Catherine suddenly asked, “Can I have a look at his phone?”
Tracy replied thoughtfully, “After Ethan’s phone was passed to the police, the Lowe family and the Lyons family took
a look at it as well. But I was the first to look at it. After noticing the drafted message, I sent the screenshot to my
phone and removed it from his phone.”
Catherine was startled.
Tracy knitted her brows together. “Have you thought about the reason Ethan wanted to send you this message in
his last moment rather than his last words regarding other things? What did he want you to be careful of? Or was
he looking for you yesterday because of something?”
“I have no idea.”
Afraid that Tracy would overthink it, Catherine swiftly explained, “I haven’t seen him since the wedding. When he
suddenly contacted me the other day, I was quite surprised. But according to Wesley, it was probably because I
quarreled with Wesley the
day before and Ethan wanted to mediate things for us.
Once she finished speaking, she fixed her eyes on the screenshot.
