"She could have fixed it, I know she could have." I replaced the period with a comma. I guess if you had to change anything else you could replace "could have' with "could've" Hope this helps :)

Answer:

To have the correct punctuation you have to move the comma and place it after softly.

Explanation:

There are many grammatical and syntaxis rules about the use of commas, when it comes to commas around quotes, the first an basic rule is to always use a comma before a quotation to set it apart from the introductory sentence since according to syntaxis it is presenting a different idea, therefore the comma should be placed right before the quotation marks.
