Molly: *hangs up the phone*
Steven: So what did he want to talk about?
Molly: N-Nothing important.
*Stella raised and eyebrow and was about to question further when her cellphone rang.*
Stella: *answers it* Hello? Oh, Captain Wilson? What's this about? Oh, I see. Huh? Well, okay. Thanks for filling us. We'll see you there. Okay. Bye. *hangs up*
Steven: What did she want to talk about?
Stella: The trial's been cancelled.
Steven: What?! Why?!
Stella: Donovan was found dead in his cell. Cause of death: assumably suicide.
Steven: So then what happens now?
Stella: Well, according to Captain Wilson, we have the option of either officially adopting Molly or letting the authorities place her in an orphanage.
Molly: *grabs onto Steven's leg* A-A-Are you going to let them take me away? *starts to tear up*
Steven: *smiles and pats her head* Of course not. You're our princess. In fact, Stella? Call Captain Wilson back and tell her we'll be driving to town hall in a few days to sign those adoption papers.
Molly: *smiles*
Stella: Okay. But why in a few days?
Steven: Remember our arrangement with my grandparents. (AN: Read the previous chapter.)
