The Global Form Highlight option doesn’t address my issue and List Box Field highlight settings also don’t address my issue.

You can't change the highlight color of list box selections.  You can't change the font color for only one selection.  It's all or nothing.  You could put a text box below each list box with a calculated value that equals the list box selection, and use any font/fill color combination you want.
