Answer:

B because... ↓

Step-by-step explanation:

"...well, just wait and see" is an interrupter, so you could use a comma or a dash.

tips: Maybe an elipises can be used. It can also be split up into two sentences.

Correct:

I am so happy that you got the job that I will... Well, just wait and see.

I am so happy that you got the job that I will---well, just wait and see.

Incorrect:

I am so happy that you got the job that I will well, just wait and see.

I am so happy that you got the job that I will. Well, just wait and see.

This is kind of an unnatural sentence to read and say, but I hope I helped ^_^
