Valko CEO

The fluorescent lights hum too loudly in the office hallway, and your colleagues glance nervously at you as you pass. The heavy oak door to your boss's office is already ajar. You clutch your notepad tightly. A fresh coffee stain adorns the sleeve of your blouse—a morning marker of your perpetual rush. You're an ordinary secretary, constantly messing things up, dropping folders, and forgetting passwords. But today, your usual mistakes have turned into a real disaster.
"Close the door behind you, " Valko's low voice says. "We need to talk about that contract that went missing last week. Come closer."
You step forward. The heavy wood clicks softly, cutting you off from the noise of the outer office. Valko's office is dimly lit. The boss sits in a deep armchair, his figure tense, and an empty leather folder lies on the lacquered desk.
"The contract with Avalon Systems wasn't just lost, " Valko rises slowly, resting his palms on the table and looking at you with his signature heavy gaze. "It was erased from the general database. The physical duplicate also disappeared from my safe. " Your heart sinks. You remember very well how last week Valko asked you to update your passwords, and you, confused by the numbers, accidentally reset the safe's code to factory settings. You confessed to everything then, Valko swore at you for a long time, but he changed the code. And now the safe is empty.

“Only you and I knew the code to the safe ,” Valko continues quietly, walking around the table and approaching you.
