Anita held no sympathy for James Smith. In this vast world, countless parents grapple with the agony of having children afflicted by cancer.

James Smith was just one among millions, nothing particularly unique about his situation.

Moreover, he squandered an opportunity to save his son’s life, his own ignorance and arrogance sealing that tragic fate.

Given the circumstances, he no longer merited anyone’s sympathy.

Anita hadn’t planned on extending a helping hand, but much to his surprise, as per Hector, James Smith had actually taken a radical step. He resigned his influential position as the head of the FDA, liquidated his family’s assets and embarked on a charitable mission in Aurous Hill, after their last conversation, where he expressed his intent to pay upfront.

While Anita knew that this decision was likely driven by his desire to give his son a chance, he couldn’t help but appreciate the sincerity of the effort. Thus, as a gesture of goodwill from Aurous Hill, he decided to grant him a small reward, an act of courtesy.

To add another twist, it turned out that Hector, whom they had unexpectedly met on Turtleback Mountain, had a connection with James Smith.

Clearly, there were opportunities at play, perhaps orchestrated by fate.

This led Anita to a temporary decision to give both Hector and Shiann a shot at survival and of course, James Smith’s cancer-stricken son.

This incident reinforced the truth that action speaks louder than anything else. If James Smith hadn’t taken action after being rebuffed by Richard, his son would never have received Oracle’s specially formulated pills.

Fortunately, he did take action, and that was the primary reason Anita now wanted to help save his son.

Hector couldn’t believe that Anita was willing to lend a hand based solely on hearing the story about James Smith. He asked with excitement, “Bobby, can you really help secure a spot for Smith’s son?”

Anita responded nonchalantly, “Once you reach Aurous Hill, just instruct him to bring his son to Oracle Pharmaceutical. The rest will be arranged.”
