Gothel may have left her daughter Alice in the tower but she was only trying to get her revenge which makes some people do horrible things but it's possible she loves Alice in her own twisted way. Even though Gothel betrayed Drizella/Ivy, I still think she cares about and maybe even loves Drizella like a daughter. Villains tend to act pure evil and can't love but find love and happiness in the end like the Evil Queen, Zelena, and countless others. She may have felt like her revenge and motives came first, before Alice and Drizella.
