Reading Assignment 8

Pip arrives at Miss Havisham's and asks Miss Havisham to spare money for Mr. Jaggers. You then find out that Pip tells Estella he always loved her. Estella has not understood Pip's love towards her all the time he has loved Estella. I think Estella acts rude to Pip while they are talking, because she then says that she is going to marry Drummle right in front of Pip. Pip feels upset after hearing that, because he doesn't want Estella to marry Drummle, he wants her to feel happy. I feel that Pip acted that way, because of how Estella didn't understand Pip's love towards her, which caused him to feel upset. Then Pip receives a note from Wemmick, telling Pip not to go home. Wemmick explains to Pip that he is being watched and thinks Compeyson is involved with it. I think after being informed like that, Pip feels that Wemmick has always cared for him and wants him to be safe. Another person trying to be safe, is Magwitch, in which he moves by the river, and changes his name to Mr. Cambell. Pip was then informed that Magwitch is Estella's father. Since Estella was adopted, I kind of had a feeling that Magwitch was her father, because he was convict, and he probably wasn't there most of Estella's life. Pip then receives a note from Wemmick, telling him that Magwitch needs to escape soon.
