I can do this, I tell myself firmly. I can be attracted to him. It's just a matter of self control and possibly also getting very drunk. So I lift my glass and take several huge gulps. I can feel the bubbles surging into my head, singing happily "I'm going to be a millionaire's wife! I'm going to be a millionaire's wife!" And when I look back at Tarquin, he already looks a bit more attractive. Alcohol is obviously going to be the key to our marital status.

She believes that with enough self-control and perhaps some alcohol, she can change her perception. As she drinks, she starts to feel elated, envisioning a future where she is married to a millionaire.

This moment highlights her inclination to use alcohol as a means to enhance her attraction and cope with her desires. As the bubbles take effect, she begins to see Tarquin in a more favorable light, illustrating how her fantasies about wealth and classic romance influence her emotions. The idea of wealth becomes entwined with her perception of love and attraction.
