Chapter 408: Chapter 407: Sexless Marriage
Yvonne Lawson shook her head with a forlorn expression, "It’s nothing. Every time I think of the child, I feel uneasy and sorry for him."
"The doctor said it’s nothing serious, he’ll be fine in a few days." Owen Hayes thought Yvonne Lawson was talking about the child being weak.
"I know, my heart aches for his future. Now that he’s born, the field for his father’s name is blank, and when he goes to school, that father’s field will still be blank. By then, he’ll surely be laughed at by the other kids in school." Yvonne Lawson said this, almost in tears.
Owen Hayes’s expression turned somewhat unpleasant, "You said before that you weren’t after these formalities."
"I did say that, and I still feel the same way. I love you for who you are; I don’t care, but I can’t bear for our son to suffer. Owen, how about this, you take the baby away. I’m sure your wife will accept him. She doesn’t have a son; let her raise him so he grows up to be filial to her. Tell the baby that your wife is his real mother, and don’t tell him about me." Yvonne Lawson spoke with great grievance.
After Yvonne Lawson finished speaking, seeing that Owen Hayes was silent, she changed her tone and continued to complain.
"If there was any way, I wouldn’t want to be separated from my child either. Isn’t this what’s best for the child? Owen, can you really bear to see him laughed at by the other kids for not having a father? He’s your son!"
This mention of ’son’ made Owen Hayes fall into deep thought.
After a while, Owen Hayes finally looked up, speaking with some difficulty: "Yvonne Walsh has been with me for almost twenty years. She knows that I’ve had women outside all these years, and I promised her that no one would threaten her position or have children outside."
At the mention of ’women outside,’ Yvonne Lawson understood her position in Owen Hayes’s heart.

Yvonne Lawson managed to stand out among Owen Hayes’s women with certain means.
At this point, she didn’t mention herself anymore, knowing that Owen Hayes cared about the child, and kept bringing up the child.
"Owen, is your son not important? Are you planning to let him live his whole life unable to hold his head up high? Yvonne Walsh can no longer have children! Are you planning to let The Hayes Family line end? Are you planning to give our baby no chance to call someone ’Dad’?"
Yvonne Lawson, being very perceptive, noticed Owen Hayes’s demeanor softening and continued:
"Owen, do you know what a woman’s love for a man looks like?"
Owen Hayes looked at her, and Yvonne Lawson, despite the taboo of not crying during confinement, was teary-eyed as she spoke:
"It’s being unable to endure seeing your man close with any other woman. Every time I see you with another woman, it feels like knives stabbing my heart. I know my status; I have no right to control you, no right to argue with you, so I endure it. But Yvonne Walsh knows full well; she could have told you; she could have argued with you, but she didn’t. It’s just because her heart no longer has you in it. She stays by your side just for the material life you can provide. Owen, her heart doesn’t have you anymore. Even if you divorce her and give her enough money, she can still live a lavish life."
Owen Hayes hesitated at what Yvonne Lawson said.
He and Yvonne Walsh already had a sexless marriage, and they rarely communicated. It could be said this marriage only existed in name.
Whether they stayed together or not, it no longer mattered.
