Charlie felt no sympathy for James Smith.


    In a world filled with parents facing the heartbreak of children’s cancer, James Smith was just one among countless others—nothing particrly special.


    Moreover, he had once had the opportunity to save his son’s life, but his own ignorance and arrogance caused him to squander that chance. As a result, he no longer deserved anyone’s sympathy.


    Charlie had never considered giving him or his son a second chance.


    What did surprise Charlie, however, was what Arlo Hu mentioned: after James Smith’sst encounter with him, where he was told that payment was required upfront for what he sought, James actually resigned from his position as the head of the FDA. He sold off his family’s property and relocated with his children to Aurous Hill to engage in charity work.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    While Charlie understood that James’s motivation was likely to secure a chance for his son, he couldn’t help but admire the effort he put forth. In this light, Charlie felt it was appropriate to offer a little assistance back to Aurous Hill.


    Coincidentally, Arlo Hu, whom Charlie had met at Turtle Back Mountain, happened to know James Smith. This twist of fate was intriguing.


    As a result, Charlie decided on the spot to extend a lifeline to Arlo Hu and Hallie while also giving James Smith’s cancer-stricken son a chance. This situation reaffirmed an important truth: actions speak louder than words. Had James not acted upon his rejection, his son would have never had the opportunity to receive the Jiuxuan Zaizao Pill, even in death.


    Fortunately, he did take action, which was the primary reason Charlie wanted to save his son.<fn9d78> Updates are released by find?novel</fn9d78>


    Arlo Hu was taken aback that Charlie was willing to help after merely hearing his ount of James Smith. Excitedly, he asked, “Kaiden (Charlie), can you really assist Smith’s son in securing a job?”


    Charlie replied nonchntly, smiling as he said, “Once you arrive in Aurous Hill, just have him take his son to Jiuxuan Pharmaceutical, and I’ll handle the rest.”


    Arlo Hu expressed his gratitude, saying, “Thank you, Achen! I truly appreciate it!”


    Charlie gave him a reassuring pat on the shoulder, urging, “Go say your goodbyes to the others and get moving; we’ll head out first.”


    Arlo Hu nodded, wanting to say something more, but Charlie had already turned and walked away side by side with Lin Wan’er.


    As they disappeared from view, Hallie remained skeptical, saying, “Arlo Hu, do you really think what Charlie said is reliable?”


    “Let’s find a way to indirectly verify his credibility,” Arlo Hu proposed.


    Hallie queried, “How do we go about that?”


    Arlo Hu looked her in the eyes and asked, “Do you perceive A as a bad person?”


    After a moment of thought, Hallie shook her head. “I don’t believe he’s a bad guy, and… I also don’t think he’s just some wealthy second-generation who relies solely on his money. There’s something about him that feels more profound, though I can’t quite put my finger on it.” Arlo Hu smiled knowingly and replied, “Absolutely profound. I can’t im to know everything about him, but like you, I don’t think he’s a bad person.”


    He continued, “The indirect verification I mentioned involves gauging whether Kaiden (Charlie) is genuinely a bad person. If hees off as such, then we should question his statements.”


    “However, since we both feel he isn’t a bad person, we must consider a basic truth: would a good person joke about life and death?”


    After pondering, Arlo Hu answered his own question, “I believe the answer to that is no. A genuinely good person wouldn’t trivialize something so serious.”<h3 ss="wp-block-heading has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
