The Breaking Point of Love (Celeste and Trevor) novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28

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.
