Work Story (Names have been changed and story has been sensored.)

I went to work yesterday and found that my boss, Sharron, brought her 9 year old daughter, Anne, to work, which is not a big deal. Anyway, she told her daughter to go in the other room where I was working and read her book while she was in a meeting. When she came in there, she sat down and started reading her book. She looked a bit shy so I started talking to her. Then, I let her help me rinse off some pens that had candy on them, which required going to the lady's room and using the sink. That didn't take long at all.
After everything was done in the room, I went back to my office, which I share with a co-worker called Betty. Then I started to put a new anti-virus program on my computer, and Anne complained that she was bored. I told her that I was sure it would be okay if she played on her moms computer until she got back from her meeting and Betty agreed. So, she went in her moms office and got on the computer. She came into our office about 3 or 4 times to complain that she was bored, grab a piece of candy, and we would send her back to Sharron's computer.
When Sharron returned from her meeting, she went to her office to discover Anne scrunched in the corner. Betty and I heard the entire conversation:

Sharron: "Why are you scrunched in the corner like that?"
Anne: "Mom, I think I peed my pants."
Sharron: "What? Are you serious?!"
Anne: "Yep."
Sharron: "Stand up and turn around!"
*Pause.*
Sharron: "OH MY GAWD! It's all over your pants and shoes! We brought you an extra shirt, I didn't think I'd have to bring extra pants! Why didn't you go to the bathroom?!"
Anne: "I didn't know where it was."
Sharron: "You didn't think to ask anyone?!"
Anne: "I asked Betty to take me, but she didn't."

Then she came into our office.

Sharron: "Betty, Anne said she had to go to the bathroom and you didn't take her."
Betty: "No! I promise, she just came in here a few times and said she was bored!"
Me: "Yeah, she didn't mention one time that she had to use the bathroom."
Sharron: "Oh, really?"
Betty: "Yeah, no joke."
Me: "If she had to go, she could have, because I showed her where the bathroom was."
Sharron: "Oh, reeeaaally... ANNE! DID YOU HEAR THAT?! NATIVE SAID SHE SHOWED YOU WHERE THE BATHROOM WAS!"
Anne: "I couldn't find it."

After that, Sharron made Anne go to the bathroom (which she easily found) and put a big t-shirt on. When Anne came back:

Sharron: "Did you clean out your underwear?"
Anne: "No, I just didn't put them back on."
Sharron: "Well, we have to go to Walmart. I hope we don't see any of your friends."
Anne: "Hahaha."
Sharron: "I'm glad you think this is funny, cuz, you're grounded when we get home!"
*Pause.*
Sharron: "Oh, my! WHERE did you pee?!"
Anne: "Umm...I was sitting at your desk."
Sharron: "I have a FABRIC CHAIR! Now I have PEE IN MY CHAIR! AND YOU HAVE PEE IN YOUR SHOES! Oh, crap! There's a computer guy coming to the office today to look at my computer! Now I have to put a note on my chair for him not to sit in it! Betty, please tell him it wasn't me..."
Betty: "I'll tell him what happened."

The entire time I was holding in my laughter! I mean, what 9 year old kid pees their pants and on top of that lies about the reason?!
