By the time Pip arrived at Satis House, he saw Estella looking more beautiful than ever. She had become a very pretty young lady and Pip was, more than ever, in love with her, despite the fact that Estella warned him that she will not love him or another man. After he came back in London, he was fiiled with enthousiasm and told Herbert his secret. So, Herbert told him that he had a secret as well and this was that he was engaged to a woman called Clara and he was going to marry her by the time that he had enough money for that. The time went by and Pip used to meet Estella in London quite often. Sometimes she was nice to him but most often she was proud and cold. Pip and his friend, Herbert were not able to live an expensive life in London anymore and they got into dept. One day, Pip was informed that his sister, Mrs Joe, was dead and he went in the funeral. Biddy announced to him that she was going back to the village to become a teacher as they didn't need her help anymore but their little talk ended bad, as Biddy didn't believe that Pip would come back to the village and visit Mr Joe, who will be alone, and these words upset Pip very much. At Pip's twenty first birthday, Jaggers gave him a banknote and said to him that every year he will recieve the same amount and he will be able to live in London as a gentleman. Pip was very quite satisfied and the first thing he did was to help his friend Herbert and get him a nice job. A few days later, Pip recieved a letter from Estella telling him that Miss Havisham wanted them both to go to Satis House and visit her. But, as soon as they got there, Miss Havisham and Estella argued about Estella's upbringing and for the first time Estella said that it was not her fault that she didn't love anyone, but Miss' s Havisham, who forced her to do that. However, Miss Havisham wished Estella could only love her as a mother. Back in London, Estella's admirers were many and Pip was very jealous, although Estella warned him that it is better for him that she is not behaving him as the others and she is not entraping him too. When Pip was twenty three years old, he had to deal with a really difficult and shocking situation, as he learned for the first time that his benefactor was the convict that he helped when he was a little boy and not Miss Havisham. He was really dissapointed then, as he realised that Miss Havisham had no expectations for him to marry Estella. But, the real problem was that his benefactor, Abel Magwitch, was in danger in London and Pip had to look after him. With the help of his good friend, Herbert, Pip found him a place to live and was as careful as possible to keep his benefactor's arrival in London a secret. Finally, Abel Magwitch, telling the story of his life, confide in the young men that he became a convict because he had bussiness with a man, called Compeyson, and worked for him many years. This man was dishonest and in court the convict was accused for everything Compeyson has done as well, who also was, shocking enough, the man who broke Miss's Havisham heart!!
