Maddie laid it on thick, "Mrs. Bishop, you're so beautiful! Even prettier than my mom! You must have been a knockout when you were younger! Steph must have inherited your good looks. She's so pretty." "Aww, sweet talker! You're such a cutie pie! Our Steph hasn't been bullying you at school, has she? If she has...just tell me, and I'll sort her out."

Stephanie helplessly said, "Mom, what are you talking about? I don't bully people."

Maddie winked at her, the look in her eyes saying...Are you sure you don't bully me? You've forgotten who made me cry, huh?

Gillian laughed at the girls' interactions, "Don't worry, Mrs. Bishop, Steph is so adorable she would never bully anyone! Everyone loves her, even the teachers often praise her!"
