windows as the autumn leaves fell on the city's sidewalks.Hr: Unutar modernog, elegantnog ureda, na svakom stolu smiješile su se male bundeve, a sjajne papirnate duhove visjele su sa stropa.En: Inside

redu.En: Her superiors had recently given her unusual tasks, and her intuition told her that something was not right.Hr: Marko, kolega iz računovodstva, prošao je kraj njezinog stola.En: Marko, a colleague from accounting, walked past her desk.Hr: "Bok, Ivana!En: "Hi, Ivana!Hr: Jesi spremna za party?En: Are you ready for the party?"Hr: " upitao je veselo, dok je ispravljao papirnatog kostura na svom stolu.En: he asked cheerfully as he adjusted the paper skeleton on his desk.Hr: "Da, Marko," odgovorila je Ivana, pokušavajući zvučati opušteno.En: "Yes, Marko," replied Ivana, trying to sound relaxed.Hr: No, nelagoda u njezinom glasu nije promakla ni Nini, njezinoj prijateljici koja je radila na recepciji.En: But the unease in her voice did not escape even Nina, her friend who worked at reception.Hr: Nina je prišla i dodirnula Ivanino rame.En: Nina approached and touched Ivana's shoulder.Hr: "Ivana, jesi dobro?En: "Ivana, are you okay?Hr: Djeluješ zabrinuto.En: You seem worried."Hr: ""Zadnje vrijeme osjećam da nešto nije u redu s tvrtkom," priznala je Ivana tiho.En: "Lately, I have been feeling that something is wrong with the company," Ivana admitted quietly.Hr: "Imam osjećaj da rade nešto ilegalno, ali ne mogu to dokazati.En: "I have a feeling they are doing something illegal, but I can't prove it."Hr: "Nina ju je ohrabrila.En: Nina encouraged her.Hr: "Možda bi trebala
