Celeste’s expression stiffened . “ Wynn ? Do you mean Wynn Locket ? The one who returned from Andostan recently ?
Matthias nodded , surprised . “ Yes . Do you know her ? ”
“ She’s my half – sister . ”
Matthias was dumbfounded . Although he knew a little about Celeste’s family situation , he hadn’t expected such a coincidence .
Celeste’s gaze turned cold , and she added , “ She’s also Trevor’s lover . ”
The car suddenly screeched to a halt ..
Matthias ‘ eyes widened in shock . “ You- ”
Celeste shook her head and kept a cool composure . She said “ I’m fine . I just don’t agree with her joining our company . ”
Matthias agreed without hesitation . “ I support your decision . ”
Celeste felt touched . “ Thank you . ”
After a pause , she said , “ But that means you’ll be losing a genius . ”
Chuckling , Matthias shook his head and glanced at her . He replied with utmost sincerity , “ She may be an algorithm genius , but compared to you , she’s nothing . ”
Celeste was stunned . She thought Matthias was exaggerating , but he stated , “ I’m just being honest . ”
Celeste hadn’t expected him to say that . After thinking for a moment , she asked , “ It’s been a while since she last did her interview . Why hasn’t she started yet ? ”
Matthias shrugged . “ She said she had some things to take care of . I didn’t press her for details . ”
After more than ten minutes , they arrived at their destination .
Matthias noticed Celeste was lost in thought and asked , “ What’s on your mind ? ”
“ I just don’t understand why she would want to join our company .
Their company was doing well , but there were bigger companies in the country . With Wynn’s background and education , she had plenty of options .
While Celeste was a major shareholder , her identity wasn’t made public for specific reasons . Wynn probably didn’t know about her connection to the company , so she couldn’t possibly be targeting her .
Matthias rubbed his chin and suddenly grinned . “ During our chat the other day , she mentioned our company’s programming language and said she was very interested in Cuap . ”
Cuap was the programming language Celeste had designed with a team when she was 17 .
At the time , many people thought it was ordinary . In recent years though , it had become the company’s most formidable asset .
Many professionals had tried to analyze it , but none had succeeded . Now , it was considered a benchmark in the Industry .

It seemed that Wynn had come for this programming language .
“ Now that you mention it , many talented people have joined our company because of Cuap over the past few years , ” remarked Matthias .
Celeste hadn’t realized this .
Matthias ruffled her hair with a smile . “ That’s why I say she’s nothing compared to you . ”
He knew better than anyone how much of a genius Celeste was , having worked with her for years . Especially since before Celeste’s arrival , he had been regarded as the genius in their field .
