Answer:

O D. He was brought there as a potential suitor for Estella.

Explanation:

Charles Dickens' <em>Great Expectations</em> tells the story of a poor orphaned boy named Pip who gets a chance to improve his standing in society through a secret benefactor. The whole book follows the childhood and adult life of the main protagonist and his life from being a blacksmith in the village to a gentleman in London's high society.

Herbert Pocket is the roommate of Pip in London and who would eventually become his friend. They had previously met in<u> Chapter XI where they fought in Miss Havisham's garden</u>. And now, their<u> reunion in chapter XXII</u> reveals the true nature of Herbert's presence at Miss Havisham's residence. <u>He had been sent for by Miss Havisham as a potential suitor for Estella</u>, which Herbert termed in his own words <em>"Affianced, [...] Betrothed. Engaged."</em> But he revealed <em>"she couldn’t,—at all events, she didn’t"</em> which led to his present life and not being provided for.
