On Pip’s twenty-first birthday, he is called into Mr. Jaggers’ office and learns that he will be getting a yearly stipend of five hundred pounds from now on, beginning with a gift of five hundred pounds on that day. However, Pip learns that he is not to learn the name of his benefactor that day. After this meeting, Pip asks Mr. Wemmick his opinion on someone secretly buying a business partnership for a friend. Mr. Wemmick encourages him to ask at his home rather than in the office.
