— According to how my husband conducts himself, she said to him, we shall go together.

A note on this passage

Malvina lays down her condition to her brother, and it is really an ultimatum to her husband. 'Conforme fôr o procedimento de meo marido,' according to how he behaves — she will decide by his actions, not his words. Her love is not yet dead, but it is now conditional on one thing: what he does about Isaura.
