The narrative explores how Estella's character evolves and whether she can break free from her manipulative upbringing. Short phrases like 'heart of stone' are used to depict her emotional barriers. This scene illustrates the societal expectations placed upon Estella and the internal struggles she faces while trying to reconcile her feelings and her imposed role as an instrument of revenge.
