What was the reward for Dr. Sadao in The Enemy?

In "The Enemy" by Pearl S. Buck, Dr. Sadao Hoki receives no formal reward for his actions in saving an American soldier during World War II. Instead, he faces the moral and social repercussions of his decision, as his loyalty to his country and his duty as a doctor conflict. His reward is more internal, as he grApples with his values and the implications of compassion amidst war. Ultimately, he finds a sense of personal integrity and moral clarity in his choice to save a life, despite the societal backlash.
