Lets be realistic here, he’s a jerk and evil, he knew she was his daughter but hurt her continuously. If it takes him to know that the emperor is evil just to be a good father or regret , it’s not genuine. He never cared for her or was a good father/human, I m glad the author didn’t redeem him because not all evil characters deserve redemption.
I'm a bit disappointed that till the end the father never once acknowledged his mistakes or even said her name correctly.
When he realized that the emperor caused the death of his OG daughter, I would have wished for him to switch sides and redeem himself, but I guess once a douche always a douche?
