Verbal Irony

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, you need to know the different kinds of irony. Dramatic irony is when the audience knows a key piece of information in a movie or play that a character does not. Situational irony is when the actual result of a situation is totally different from what you’d expect the result to be. Verbal irony is when a speaker is saying the opposite of what he or she is means. The best fit for this situation would be verbal irony, so this is the answer.
