The bug only really occurs if your caught doing it, as with most of the 'bad blood' you get from killing anyone. If you're discrete and stealthy in your kill, it really doesn't affect anything. Their relationship will remain unchanged with you, as they were none-the-wiser.

But that's just my experience.
