    A. A Novation

    Explanation:

    A novation is contract law or business law term that can represent the following situations:

    1. Replacing an already established obligation to perform with another obligation

    2. Adding a new obligation to perform to the already established obligation

    3. Replacing a party to an agreement who is supposed to perform an obligation with a new party.

    Replacing a party to an agreement with a new party

    The kind of novation that has occurred in the question is the third type where the obligations of Craig to design a website for Molly has been replaced with the agreement by Eric to take Craig's place and design the website for Molly.

    The Novation clause is that: all parties involved in this type of contract must consent to the changes
