I would think an office would be different than your home. But maybe it's just me. People are in and out of here all the time but I don't really like company so maybe I keep up with it more especially teenagers because I have to keep up with what they are up too.
My thought is the new girlfriend is probably not a primary care giver for a teenager that she hasn't been around all that long (all things considered) and she is taking care of a little one. With the houses being that close together I would picture Hailey popping in and out to get things frequently, not necessarily checking in with the new girlfriend, asking for help, or updating her whereabouts.
In your case kids popping in and out of the house tie back to your monitoring of your own kids, know what I mean? You are aware what yours are doing, who they are with, so the friend popping in hits your radar (and your natural maternal monitoring).
In my case there are three of us that work in the office.
If I was in the press saying I didn't know if our partners child was here last on monday or wednesday (a child I have known since he was born) everyone would be debating how I could not know in a group that small, I am the only female I should be more aware of a child, etc.....
For me that one is just not a redflag.
