Glitches on Return WA in MV

I have the Traveler mod. Error Trap. Overwatch. Story Progression. Register. 

They have travelled before to WA Le Champes as a whole household, all good. One of them has gone to university and completed it in one trip. All good on return.

Now, two of the five, newlyweds, went to Al Simhara. On return the game said it had sold the business they were partner in, Tasty Tomes and Treats, which is the bookstore-restaurant of Monte Vista.

The top household sim in the portraits on the left of the screen, who was one who stayed behind, an hour later, when being instructed to run to the end of the driveway then 'go to work' from their career panel, reset back to the house. I got her to run to the end of the driveway again, then choose the 'go to work' button in her career tab. She reset again. I do this because at their house, the Perry sisters, the carpool arrives halfway up the hill and it takes them a while to catch up to it, get in and go.

I tried going back to the last save I had in Al Simhara which is 5 minutes before the newlyweds Noel Perry and Jayden James fly home. Went through the travel loading screen for returning home again.

When they arrived home at the town entry spot, the game immediately told me again that the Tasty Tomes and Treats had been sold. I checked it and it has an option to buy a partnership, instead of to buy out and the map tag doesn't have the owned symbol on it.

And this time the other sim, Emma, the top face on the household portraits, didn't have any career panel, she is now unemployed, which I didn't arrange, the game has done it. She is dressed in her pink dress and white coat to go to work because she had just had a shower for it as Noel and Jayden were leaving for Al Simhara. But there is no Science Lab job for her to go to. Everyone else's careers are intact. 

What's going on? Do I need to go back to a further back save? Is it the Traveler mod interfering? This has never happened before, neither in my past games or towns.

Should I go as far back as before they went on holiday? I have a couple of saves from when they were at Al Simhara, and a bunch before. 

Are you stumped puzzlezaddict​ ?

Totally time-wasting and frustrating.

    DivinylsFan​  I would definitely try any save you have from within Al Simhara, just sending them back to see what happens.  If one of them does work, in that the homeworld is intact or at least the problems are fixable, you'll need to decide whether you'd prefer to play forward from that point or use your most recent save and repair things there.

    The first set of issues you described can probably be fixed.  For the business they own, you can of course buy it again, in full from a sim's cell phone if you don't want to go through the "partnership" phase first, and you can cheat them back the money if necessary.  The going to work part has workarounds that I can suggest if it comes to that.

    And no, I very much doubt Traveler has anything to do with this.
