Chapter 617 A Relaxing Time

After having dropped off the hastily bought food he had just acquired, Marcus made his way back to the parlor where Mrazivý and Lilia had become engaged in a game of chess.

Seeing the two of them going at it so intently put a smile on Marcus' face as he was happy to see the two of them getting along.

Though just few minutes into the game, Lilia had Mrazivý on the ropes and soon said, "Checkmate!"

There was some obvious glee in her voice as she managed to beat Mrazivý who had a look of utter shock on her face.

Of course, she never thought she was going to lose to Lilia who was only thirteen years old, but it was just the difference in their current experience.

Lilia played games with her friends quite often and had been practicing so that she could beat Marcus. So for Mrazivý, who had not played much for quite some time, it was obvious that she was a bit rusty.
