Answer:

Turning her body toward Carly.

Explanation:

Since turning someone's body towards the speaker means that they are actively paying attention. If she would return text messages, it would make it look like Stephanie doesn't care at all, same thing for focusing on people in the background. If she were to stop Carly's story to ask off-topic questions, it would also make Stephanie seem ignorant.
