Purely speculation, but my idea is they live in a tight-knit community, they have this perceived perfect marriage and everyone knows everyone. If he leaves Lacy, he gets the title of duplicitous mommy/baby-leaving bastard. If Lacy&Conner disappear...he doesn't have to face public scorn. (Obviously that didn't turn out, but...)
I think that would be his motive. Killing someone is easier than dealing with the public repercussions of leaving them. At least in his mind.
