"Why do the main character's parents often get the short end of the stick?"
That is what Mila asked while looking up at the sky. She was grumbling toward whoever sent her inside the novel she read before she died.
She becomes the mother of the main character, whose parents are both dead. Mila's character was merely a tool for the MC's character development.
It's a simple, fix-all solution. The author wanted to make the audience instantly sympathetic towards the main character, and the best thing he did was to have the MC's parents die.

After she avoided her death in the original plot, death flags kept coming for her. 

Will the original plot not end if she's not dead?

Main character's parents must die

"What am I going to be doing?" Christopher asked his butler again about Duke Dwight's sudden visit to Esclamado. Christopher massages his temples as he suspects that this event is something under an episode, but then thinks twice because he currently has the freedom to move.

"He asked for you to marry his daughter as soon as possible, but only you, my lord, will know the details by asking the duke." The butler graciously replied to Christopher's irritated expression.

Christopher was too stunned to speak, so he only gestured his hand towards the butler to leave.

Mila and Robert slowly went out to their hiding place after the butler left the dining room. Then Mila grabbed Christopher's hand and asked with full interest, "What is going on? Are you dating Princess Ginalou? Is it that the more you hate, the more you love? I didn't know you had a love interest at this age!"

"Curious about the truth of this world."
