Conflict with custom sorting (always working as ASC, DESC not working)

We created custom sorting

We used

<?php $queriedVar = get_query_var('paged');
$countPosts = 12;
$paged = ($queriedVar) ? $queriedVar : 1;
$args = [
    "post_type" => "post",
    "posts_per_page" => $countPosts,
    "post_status" => "publish",
    'paged' => $paged,
];
if(isset($_GET["price"]) && ($_GET["price"] === "from-max" || $_GET["price"] === "from-min")) {
    $args["meta_key"] = "product_price";
    $args["orderby"] = "meta_value_num";
    $args["suppress_filters"] = true;
    if($_GET["price"] === "from-min") {
        $args["order"] = "ASC";
    } elseif ($_GET["price"] === "from-max") {
        $args["order"] = "DESC";
    }
}
print_r($args);
$catalogProducts = new WP_Query($args); ?>

When plugin deactivated – then our custom sorting working perfect, but when plugin active – then always ASC order in both solution (same result with ASC and DESC query – always ASC).

Please provide some hook with some code or some other solution to solve our problem.

Thank You, Vitaliy.
