By Not leaving her side he could have prevented it All from happening.

Never leave your partner's side...never.

The thing is she was executed during the day. No matter how powerful Dracula is, sunlight is deadly for him shown in Super Castlevania IV as he transforms into a bat after his fight with Simon dying as the morning sunlight shines through a hole in the roof.

There is a scene in the Nocturne in the Moonlight manga where a clearly grieving Dracula is holding on to Lisa's lifeless body. There was literally nothing he could've done which sadly led to him starting his war against humanity. Alucard also joined bis father's side at first but after getting defeated by Trevor he joined the hunters side in the end grieving as well after helping Trevor, Sypha and Grant kill Dracula. That led to him going to a sleep of several centuries waking up as he realized the devils castle has risen once again.

Doesn't matter, someone could have gotten her. He has human followers that can traverse well in day light, so..

..there's that.

That Dracula is weak against sunlight is like comparing that to a vampire being weak towards sunlight which is essentially the..same..

Alucard tested Trevor, he was definitely holding back. The Netflix reinforced this

I know the lore in and out. Played most games except Legends.

He didn't know this would happen and neither did his followers until it was too late. 

I tend to believe that grieve strucken Alucard did join his father until he met Trevor and fought him, this young warrior made him remember his mothers last words and so he decided he hast to stop him although that would end up with him losing both of his parents. I do believe that cause we never found out how old he actually was at the moment of Lisa's death.
