Love Therapy (Stanton Falls #2) Read Online Free PDF Page B

that’s the tour
of the place.  What do you think?”

 
    “It’s great, but I
thought you were going to introduce me to the head of the company.”

 
    “Oh my, I did just
shuffle right on past his office didn’t I?  My mistake.  Let’s go
meet him now.  He’s really a good guy.  This company has helped a lot
of families in our town, especially the younger ones.  It’s not so easy to
find jobs where they can use their degrees from the universities in towns like
this one. With places like this one that Mr. Dellinger has started, some of our
young folk, like yourself, can come back home and find places to work rather
than having to move to a bigger city.”

 
    Donna knew what she meant.
 If she hadn’t already known that Mr. Faulkner was going to give her a job
when school was done, she might have had to take one of the offers she had
outside of Stanton Falls.  

 
    The owner really did
seem to care about the community.  Not a surprise, seeing that it was one
of the Dellingers .  This town was their home and
they took every effort to bring success to the people there.  She never
remembered meeting even one of them but she looked forward to finally meeting a
member of the most well-known family in the town.

 
    The woman walked up to a
secretary’s desk.

 
    “Trudy, is Mr. Dellinger
available?  I’d like him to meet our new counselor.”

 
    “As available as he ever
will be.  Never takes a break so you might as well head on in.  Let me
just let him know you are coming in.”

 
    The secretary picked up
the receiver and spoke.

 
    “Sir, Monica from HR
wants to bring a new staff member by for her introduction…..I’ll send them
right in.”

 
    She placed the receiver
on the hook and then looked up at the two ladies.
    “He’s ready for you
right now.”

 
    As they walked towards
the door, Donna saw the name plate on the side.

 
    NICHOLAS
DELLINGER,
    PRESIDENT
AND CEO

 
    Why does that name sound
so familiar?

 
    The second the door
opened, she knew.   As he looked from the papers on his desk, the
recognition showed on his face immediately.

 
    “Donna I’d like you to
meet our President and CEO...”

 
    “Nick?”  Donna
spoke before the woman could even finish her statement.  

 
    “Umm...yes, that’s what
I was going to say.  Nicholas Dellinger.  But it seems you already
know that.  Apparently you both know each other already?”

 
    Nick still had a look of
surprise on his face.  He clearly was not expecting to see her at all.
 He jumped up from his chair to greet her with a smile.  

 
    “Yes we do.  Donna?
 You’re the new counselor?”

 
    “I am.  I didn’t
realize this was your company to be honest.”

 
    “Well I don’t like to
call it my company.  We all run it together.  So…”

 
    Before he could finish,
Monica jumped in.

 
    “Excuse me just one
second.  Since this was my last stop on the tour, I’m going to go ahead
and leave you two to your reunion.”

 
    The woman turned towards
Donna, offering her hand for a shake.

 
    “Welcome to the
company.”

 
    After thanking her,
Donna turned back to Nick.

 
    “So this is funny.”

 
    “What?  Did you
forget me again already?”

 
    “No not that.  And
I didn’t forget you last time.  I just didn’t recognize you.  That is
a totally different thing.”

 
    “Try telling that to
Aaron for me one day.   I got poked fun at the whole day as the unmemorable
one.  He even called me the king of forgettable.”

 
    Donna laughed as Nick
made a mock pained face.  

 
    “I’ll tell him the next
time I see him, I promise.”

 
    “Well he works right
down the hall so you will have your chance.”

 
    “You two work here together?”
 

 
    “Yup.  He’s head of
IT but has always been my right hand man here.  So how did we luck into
getting you on staff?”

 
    “Long story short, you
couldn’t afford or didn’t
