What a past.. Now i can't predict anything for the like of Muzan
So basically Muzan was stressed out and he wanted to escape the responsibility of being the head of the family and accidentally killed both of Hatsune's parents.
@Juli0n the only revenge that could leave a wound on the most powerful magician in japan is Hatsune killing herself but the story probably won't swing that way since we still have a sequel.

The comment above me is my exact reading of this. Muzan took the headmaster role quite young (not much older than 25?), as well, and I feel like the previous headmaster had too many expectations on him given that "Mujo was the best of them, but he decided to be a pretty normal human", but Muzan was "second to the best" and all that.
There's the bit that they mention that, since Muzan (and Mui) grew up in the temple, he doesn't have a "human heart" (or empathy?), but as we have seen in the series given the kind of clients Muzan has, these guys with high supernatural powers as they train to be ommyouji, they are expected to be cold in taking high risks in jobs like that, since many of these clients sometimes aren't really "very good" (and we know Muzan has plenty of enemies as well, so...). Regardless, Muzan took a role that maybe didn't fit him due to unpreparation. At least this kind of confirms that, MAYBE he did fell in "love" with his wife (well, love is charitative, infratuation might be what I'm looking for) and the many things he did to her were a way to show his "love".
I thiiiink Hatsune is in a very complicated situation, because, sure, Muzan made a mistake (and I feel he was also influenced by older Suzunoki generations' powers inside him? didn't the previous headmaster mentioned something like that?), but he still tried to be a father to her. I guess the most well deserved punishment he had was taking after his friend, older brother figure's daughter as a reminder of the mistakes he made. Daily. For years. It's just that he doesn't possess a normal "empathy" to actually process what is he doing to her as a paternal figure (taking control of her life, even now as a young adult in ther 20s, just as the temple and the Suzunoki cult? made to him), and isn't mature enough to even do the only work that isn't his actual job as a magician, as an ommyouji.
Muzan is rotten in the inside (someone else also suggested this chapters ago with the way he looked like a rotten body when he escaped that one time), and he knows this. But hasn't faced it appropiately. Maybe Hatsune has to make a rude wake up call about it to him. He has to let go.
(For the record - I'm not saying Hatsune HAS to forgive him. He still did what he did, and she deserves to be angrier at him for that -hell, even abandoning him! take revenge!-. I'm just saying it's still a complicated situation for her.)
