Answer:

In the novel, Pip confronts Miss. Havisham for letting him believe that she was his benefactor.

Yes, Miss Havisham led him on to believe that she was his benefactor.

Yes, Pip has the right to be angry with Miss Havisham for letting him believe that she was his benefactor.

No, Miss Havisham does not seem sorry as she cries angrily saying 'Who is she to be kind?'

Explanation:

"Great Expectations" is a novel written by Charles Dickens.

In the novel,  Pip mistakenly believed Miss Havisham to be her benefactor. The mistaken belief aroused because Mr. Jaggers was the lawyer of both Miss Havisham and Pip's benefactor.

Even when Pip says to Miss Havisham's house to say goodbye, her prior knowledge about Pip's leaving led Pip to believe that Miss Havisham was his benefactor. It is in chapter 38 of the novel, the true benefactor of Pip was revealed to him. The true benefactor of Pip was the convict whom he fed when he was a child. He felt angry  and unhappy about the fact.

In chapter 44, Pip visits Satis House to confront Miss Havisham. Miss Havisham acknowledged that she led him to believe that she was his benefactor because she wanted to her relatives to believe that Pip will inherit her property.

Pip has rights to be angry of being falsely led by Miss Havisham into such belief. It is because Pip deserted Joe in his wrong notions. And no one should be led into wrong beliefs as Pip. And this would mean that Pip and Estella were never meant to get married at all.

Miss Havisham, at present, does not feel sorry for the wrong. But in later chapter we can see that she called Pip to ask for forgiveness for what she did to him and Estella. She instead becomes angry when Pip questioned her for her kindness and angrily replies that who is she to be kind.
