C# property value doesn't get modified within Javascript/ jquery

I initialize a property within the Controller's Constructor.

public BookController()
{
  SessionProvider.SessionLoadSceanrio = false;
}

I have an Action Method which reset the property again on a button click event.

public ActionResult LoadScenario(int bookId)
{
  SessionProvider.SessionLoadSceanrio = true;
  // remaining code
  return Json(ScenarioId, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}

Following javascript code is in my view which is called when the button is clicked.

var BookHandler = {
  $("#btnLoadScen").click(function (e) {
                $.ajax({
                    url: "@Url.Action("LoadScenario", "Book")",
                        dataType: 'json',
                        type: 'POST',
                        data: {
                            'bookId': BookHandler.getBookId()
                        },
                        success: function (response) {
                            var scenarioId = response;
                            var isLoadScenario = "@Portal.Presentation.Web.Planning.MVC.App_Start.SessionProvider.SessionLoadSceanrio";
                            //otherproperties
                            window.open("@Url.Action("Index", "BookScenario", new {loadScenario = "_loadScenario"}).replace('_loadScenario', isLoadScenario), tabId);

                        },
                        error: function () {
                        }
                    });

                });
}

My problem is when I click the button, value of property changes in the Controller. But it doesn't change in my javascript code.Please see the screen capture of the developer tool.

You are using the razor syntax. then initially page loaded , values are set, and these values are string , not a variable anymore. then you can't get session value updated again.

please get session value from an AJAX call and set to your variable.

The code below will only be evaluated once you get the view from server and will not be re-evaluated after your ajax call. 

var isLoadScenario = "@Portal.Presentation.Web.Planning.MVC.App_Start.SessionProvider.SessionLoadSceanrio";

In order to do what you intended, you will need to return SessionLoadSceanrio in your response.

You can do it like:

    public ActionResult LoadScenario(int bookId)
    {
      SessionProvider.SessionLoadSceanrio = true;
      // remaining code
      return Json(new {ScenarioId, SessionLoadSceanrio = SessionProvider.SessionLoadSceanrio}, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
    }
