'Was she snooping on him?': Daughter works remotely at dad's house while he's away, caught off guard when his girlfriend shows up unannounced, claims she forgot her wallet, then spends 45 minutes lingering in his bedroom, daughter debates telling him

It's normal to be protective of our family members and ensure that their privacy is being respected. So when this father goes away, and his daughter is working remotely from his home, she is surprised to see his girlfriend turn up at the house unannounced. She claimed she had left her wallet, yet 45 minutes had passed, and she was still wandering around with little to no explanation. Was she snooping on her boyfriend? Or was this her dad's some sort of way to keep an eye on her whilst he's away? Either option made her feel more uncomfortable than the next, as she started to debate whether to tell her father about his gf's surprise visit, or to act as if nothing happened…an avoidant-style attempt at keeping the peace…

However, many could argue that he had probably given her permission to come over whenever she liked…something very common for most couples who have been dating for over two years. After all, they are adults, so we can assume that they are likely in communication about each other's whereabouts…But if we're wrong, and she was there trying to snoop, then this daughter is caught in a very sticky situation.
