It depends on the terms of the lease.

An attorney would have to read the lease in order to give you any specific legal advice.

You have to get back to basics. Who is the tenant under the lease? That is who is entitled to occupancy. If the lease says that someone else can also occupy (which it probably does not) then you're okay. Read the lease carefully. You always have to start there.
