Detailed Solution

The correct answer is: hadn’t been.
'Wasn't' denotes a prior event that took place in the past. 'Wasn't' provides a full meaning that agrees with the language that is provided. The past tense used in the previous sentence should have been used because it was addressed yesterday. As a result, the word "wasn't" wasn't giving the statement the right connotation.
