英訳添削お願いします。

質問

課題で英訳問題が出ました。

「自分の会社が本当に燃えていたとは、思わなかった。もちろん、築５年の２０階建てビルが、ゴミ袋に火を点けられたくらいで簡単に消失するわけがなく、ボヤで消し止められただけだったのだが、何者かの意志によって自分の会社が燃やされようとした事実は、それなりに私を動揺させた。誰かに、『燃えてもいい』と判断されたのだ。『燃えたほうがいい』と望まれた可能性も、ある。」

I'd never thought that my workplace had been burnt. Of course, a 5-year-old, 20-story building couldn't have been burnt down so easily just because the garbage in it had been fired. The fire had been put out as a small fire. But the fact that someone, of his own accord, had attempted to burn my workplace jolted me to some extent. Someone had determined that it might as well be burnt, or possibly that it should be burnt.

よろしくお願いします。
