Goryan [66]

Answer: See explanation

Explanation:

I believe that the main thing here that can favor my company is if there's documentation for every process involved with my dealings with Regina Fabrics.

This could have been solved if she didn't reject the cash that was offered to her company after two months, so there should be a formal documents that shows that she rejected the cash which should be acknowledged and signed by her. Also, the monthly payments received by her should be documented as well.

With regards to the above, if there is a formal documentation in place, then I won't have to pay as the guaranty but if this isn't in place, then I may have to pay since there won't be evidences against her.
