The Pampering CEO: Don't Mess With My Secretly-Married Sweet Wife novel Chapter 250

In Joseph’s vision, Jacob should have been very flustered upon seeing Wilson like every other programmer did, but surprisingly, he did not show any form of distress at all. Jacob was calm and managed to keep his poise.

'Maybe he’s just pretending. Did he think he could get away like this?’

Joseph scoffed inwardly and then said, offering them a grin, "You said your system, the SL system, has surpassed the DC system in every possible aspect. I'm very confident that Mr. Wilson does not agree with you. Results speak louder than words. Since both you and Mr. Wilson are the core programmers for the SL system and the DC system respectively, why don't you two have a match to find out which system is the best? What do you say?"

Jacob frowned. He turned to Seth and asked, "What do you think?"

Truth be told, it did not matter to him at all whether or not to accept the challenge. It was just that he and Seth had made a pact. He would only handle the development of the system and Seth would be in charge of external affairs.

Seth looked in askance at Wilson.

Wilson was looking contemptuously at them right now. The DC system had been dominating the market for a decade, and no one ever affected its supremacy since its introduction. He was confident that there was no other system in this world that could surpass the DC system aside from the DC system itself. Therefore, he felt their action of trying to challenge the DC system with a fledgling system was no different from hitting a stone with an egg.

"Now what? Are you not up to the challenge?" Joseph smiled as he pressed on, "So does it mean that everything you said earlier on is nothing but empty words?"

Seth looked at Joseph and he knew he was provoking them. He commanded himself to stay calm and twisted his face into a smile.

"Yes, we're going to accept the challenge, but we have t o know how Mr. Wilson wants the competition to be first."

"Simple," Wilson said. After that, he fished out a phone from his pocket and continued, "This is the latest mobile phone from our corporation, and it is carrying the improved version of the DC system. I suppose you should have your system installed on your phone as well, right?"

"Yes," Seth answered as he took out a phone.

Wilson grinned, "It's simple. Since Mr. Shelby is also a programmer, I assume that you are familiar with the KOP program, right?"

Jacob squinted his eyes. "Yes." "Very well. The KOP program is a popular program that is widely used by us programmers to test the performance of a mobile phone, so let’s see who can finish the program first and make it work on the phone,” Wilson flatly explained.

The competition had two parts. The first part was to complete the program on the phone, and the second part was to get the program running. It tested the capability of the programmer as well as the performance of the mobile phone.

Wilson was a renowned old head in programming, while Jacob... Nobody knew about him before today.

As such, the outcome of the competition was as clear a s the sky. Everyone turned their head and looked at Jacob.

All of them wondered what he would do. Would he accept the challenge, or would he back down from it?

Susan was a bundle of nerves. She was oblivious to her brother's capabilities, but she knew that Wilson was one of the top programmers in the world.

Could her brother go up against someone like this? No, it was impossible. Her brother was not in a good condition to begin with. What if he got too anxious that it triggered his illness?

Susan looked nervously at Jacob. She hoped that he would turn down the challenge. To her, nothing

mattered more than her brother’s health.

Joseph shot a sidelong glance at Susan, and when he saw her worried expression, his grin grew deeper.

Right now, he was certain that Jacob was just faking his calmness to appear strong. His sister should be the one who knew him the most. Since she appeared t o be nervous now, it was apparent that Jacob was just blowing his own horn.

Joseph turned his head back and he was relieved.

"Sure, that's no problem for me,” Jacob said calmly.

"According to international rules, we have to check each other’s phones before the competition starts,” Wilson said.
