In Cry, the Beloved Country, Why does Kumalo return to speak with Absalom's girlfriend?

Despite his personal feelings toward the girl, Kumalo knows that the right thing to do is to protect his future grandchild and family.

Though she was unkind to him, Kumalo knows that she will be arrested as an accomplice to murder if she stays in Johannesburg.

Despite his view of her present situation, Kumalo knows that he must keep his promise to the girl's parents and bring her back to them.

Though she was not with Absalom when he committed the crime, Kumalo knows that she has information valuable to the lawyer defending Absalom.
