The Chauffeur's Proposal

Franco Moreno never expected to fall in love in the backseat of his taxi. A struggling driver working for his brother's small Atlanta cab company, he dreams of building a luxury chauffeur empire-but with no money and no connections, his ambitions seem impossible. That is, until the night he picks up Layla Al-Farsi, a fiery Kuwaiti architecture student whose sharp wit and disarming confidence leave him breathless. When her wallet is stolen, Franco refuses payment, sparking an unlikely connection. She leaves him with a challenge scribbled on a receipt: "Call me when you're a real businessman."

Determined to prove himself, Franco risks everything-draining his savings, defying his family, and buying a sleek black BMW to launch Moreno Luxury Transport. As he hustles to attract Atlanta's elite, his path collides again with Layla, now torn between her growing feelings for Franco and her wealthy family's expectations. Her father, a Dubai-based tycoon, offers Franco a cruel ultimatum: Take $200,000 for his business-if he walks away from Layla forever.

But Franco isn't the only one with secrets. When a billionaire's daughter-a flirtatious client-sets her sights on him, rumors threaten both his reputation and his relationship. Layla's visa expires, forcing her back to Kuwait, and Franco faces his hardest choice: chase the money that could secure his future, or risk it all for love.

In a race against time, Franco pulls off the ultimate gamble-a business proposal wrapped in a declaration of love. At the same diner where they first connected, he hands Layla plans for a Dubai expansion: "Be my partner. Let's build an empire together." Her answer will determine whether their love story ends at the airport-or takes off beyond their wildest dreams.
