El 'honor de la familia', Ernesto Balcells , single work short story

The narrator's younger brother, who migrated to Australia two years after his sibling, confides that he believes his wife is having an affair. The brother blames his wife's suspected infidelity on their move to Australia, as he knows many couples whose marriages have fallen apart after migrating here. The brother convinces the narrator, Ernesto, to speak to the wife, to find out the truth. As the elder brother, it is his duty to sort things out, as this is a matter of family honour.
