OpenXmlPowerTools.TextReplacer.SearchAndReplace is not working on word document

Question

I'm working on a simple document merge. Wanted to find some strings and replace it with another string (Outside table).

So here is the issue, when i try to use TextReplacer.SearchAndReplace after accessing table using var table = wordDoc.MainDocumentPart.Document.Body.Elements<DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Wordprocessing.Table>(); then SearchAndReplace is not working. Don't know what is the issue.

eg code:

 private static async Task MergeDoc(WordprocessingDocument wordDoc) {
    
    var table = wordDoc.MainDocumentPart.Document.Body.Elements<DocumentFormat.OpenXml.Wordprocessing.Table>();
 
    TextReplacer.SearchAndReplace(wordDoc, "string to replace", "value", true);
 }

If I remove the table variable which actually a reference to the table from word document, then SearchAndReplace is working
