——Drost.
This surname belonged to Lily's biological father, the vigorous and robust Minister of Commerce.
Old Knight Gordon initially let out a subconscious sigh of relief, then immediately his brow furrowed again.
Given that it involved an influential minister… it was highly unlikely that the royal family was involved, which was the best news so far and avoided the worst possibility.
But conversely, the chief private secretary to the Minister of Commerce was also a bigwig in his own right.
Secretary Raff was considered a civil servant in the administrative system, directly responsible only to the Permanent Undersecretary, aside from Minister Drost. Although he appeared to be almost fifty years old, there was still some possibility of further promotion for him.
Moreover, this only served to broaden the range of potential suspects.
The members of the Knight Family pledged their knightly oaths at their investiture, swearing not to harm the royal family.
