Social Regard (Feared) is an advantage,not a disadvantage. And it's not actually an influence roll. It's still a reaction roll unless the Feared person actually used Intimidate with the bonus from Feared. But yes, it depends on the reaction roll. The question was whether hirelings would be disloyal because they rolled high on their reaction. And the answer is "no they wouldn't provided you didn't do things to earn disloyalty like randomly mistreating hirelings." One can love and fear at the same time.
