RomCom - eureka moment - chauffeur. I would like to eureka whoever thought of this prompt.

Your prompts remind me of a UK sitcom Butterflies, back when I was a kid.
Bored married housewife with kind husband and two teenagers, feels there is something missing. Pursued by a rich businessman who has lost his licence for drunk driving and picks her up in his chauffeur driven car for trysts which never go anywhere. Very bitter-sweet as she really loves her family...

In case it helps with inspiration. 

Haha, thanks fire. But not even close. I could not write that one, not much of cheater, lol. Now if someone dies...

Suave just for the record I wasn't suggesting you copy it, more hoping it might trigger a train of thought.
