"Why worry about an audience when you can do something for yourself?"

Alucard realizes it may be too bold a suggestion, especially since Lenore probably has other things to do. Being selfish was not a natural thing for Alucard either, especially when he first arrived. But it seems perhaps an important point to draw out.

"Right now, I have an architecture and arts firm, but it started out because I was restoring a destroyed graveyard for no one else's satisfaction but my own. I needed something to do, and it was satisfying to see each headstone restored. It's not even about having a hobby. I just needed something to occupy my mind."

Alucard doesn't want to assume, but if the fall out from his father's death has touched Styria, Lenore may be dealing with some shared stress.
