Clara let out a long sigh, trying to contain her annoyance at Franklin's overconfidence. But on the other hand, she was also amused by the man's behavior.

Franklin laughed softly. "I was just joking, Clara. But it's nice to hear you admit it."

Clara rolled her eyes. "Don't be so happy. I only said it to get you to stop being a bitch."

"Oh, so you find me annoying?" asked Franklin, pretending to be hurt.
