Not "would drop him", but she would like you to *think* that she would drop him if you asked her to ; or wants to be friends again.
It's all about the power-points game that many young ladies play. Young women are not used to being pushed away by guys, so the reaction to her shock is to try to make you feel jealous by demonstrating how desirable (in her opinion) she must be.
Yes she feels hurt, not because of wanting to choose you over him, but she's hurt because you have dented her desire to feel that she can have any guy she wants. Sadly many other guys out there are lame and fall for these tricks all the time. Good on you for not standing up for that rubbish.
By trying to make you feel jealous she thinks that you will want her again ; and that will give her a feeling of power. You need to make sure that you don't give all your points away to her by falling for it.
