Answer:

exchange theory

Step-by-step explanation:

Exchange theory states that humans form relationships based the rewards, cost or profit that relationship may bring. Exchange theory will propose Clara stays with her husband despite the extramarital affairs for the benefits such as financial benefits and the well being of her children.
