Bonnie was sitting on the couch with an arrogant look on her face, and her arms were crossed in front of her chest as though she was a queen.

“Really? Really? Miss Queenie, you’re the kindest and nicest girl I’ve ever met in my life!” Courtney stood up and wiped away her tears while feeling much more relieved than before.
