Tyrone took a moment before adding, “Royce... You're aware of Keilani's character. She's immature. How could she possibly care for Jennie? I had taken Jennie in when I was still oblivious to me being her biological father. Now that I'm aware she's my own, my affection for her will only deepen. Plus, Jennie leans on me and prefers not to be with Keilani."

Royce knew Keilani's nature and admitted Tyrone had a point.

One could easily draw a conclusion from the very few interactions between Jennie and Keilani.

Royce pointed out, “Yet, Keilani's presence in Mathias hinges on Jennie. Granting her custody would leave her no reason to linger here."

The previous day, Keilani had suggested it was best for Tyrone to raise Jennie. After all, she had no desire for custody and simply wanted to draw nearer to Tyrone. Why raise a child before being Tyrone's partner? The child would only serve as a burden.
