1524 Legend of the Great Fantom (Part IV)

Iris' voice choked a little after saying these words.

Now, it was Jin Liwei's turn to give his wife a comforting squeeze. He pulled her closer and kissed her forehead as if protecting her from the whole world.

Although she was alive and well now, and even built her own beautiful family with her loving husband, the fact that she had died in her past life could never be erased.

Evelina Vetrova, a.k.a. Fantom, indeed wanted to rest in peace after death.

Or more specifically, she had wanted to be from the suffocating prison shackling her as a member of the Vetrov family. Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The others thought that she became emotional because of her master-disciple relationship with the deceased Fantom.

Grandpa Lu once again started scolding his old friends.

The nerdy tech billionaire also felt guilty. "I'm sorry, Madame Drakon. I just can't control myself when it comes to Fantom. He—I mean, she has been my idol for the longest time. Just thinking about her great feats and contributions to the world of computers, the internet, and cybersecurity is enough to make me overexcited to no end. I hope that you forgive me for wanting to know more about her. I'll respect her wishes and won't try to dig deeper about her anymore."

Iris had already controlled her emotions. She gave the man a kind smile. "Thank you."

Death, especially the death of a prestigious person who contributed to the progress of humanity in the technological age like Fantom, would always fill people with great commiseration.

Grandpa Lu finished his tirade. None of his friends uttered so much as a peep. He harrumphed in satisfaction, but the same commiseration could be seen in his old, wrinkled eyes.

Warmth filled Iris' heart. Even though she hadn't met these people in her past life, they all admired her as Fantom. She felt that perhaps she wasn't all that alone in her past life after all.

Even so, she didn't like the negative energy currently filling the atmosphere. It was too depressing. Today was supposed to be a happy day for her as the owner of Liberté.

But first, she still needed to make something clear to this group of gentlemen before she let them return to the lively party outside.

Of course, her twin sons could also be considered her greatest creations, but she couldn't have created them by herself without her husband's contributions. Little Mochi and Little Matcha were the products of the love between her and Jin Liwei.

On the other hand, Ketchup and Bacon were purely created by herself alone. As a computer programmer and hacker, the two AI cats were her ultimate creations.

"I knew it! So it's true." The nerdy tech billionaire saw her smile and directly concluded that his conjecture was correct. Then he made another request. "Is it possible for me to meet them? Please?"

"No!" Jin Liwei once again rejected his request before Iris could respond.

"Why?!" The nerdy tech billionaire was about to go crazy.

"No means no." Jin Liwei didn't relent.

Ketchup and Bacon were also his kids. There was no way that he would allow their real identities to be exposed to outsiders.

The other man cast another hopeful look at Iris.

"I'm sorry," she said. "WhiteTigress and BlackPanther are still...uh, minors. My husband and I are responsible for their safety and well-being."

"Minors?!" The nerdy tech billionaire was shocked.

Grandpa Lu's friends were also dumbfounded.

"How old are they?"

"They're kids," Jin Liwei said in an intimidating, cold voice. "My wife and I won't reveal anything else about them. If you still insist on digging deeper, maybe the e-mail you received just now isn't enough."

That shut them up.
