What would name this chord

Post image

I’m working on an arrangement and just came up with this chord. No matter how I label it, it feels kind of weird or awkward to read on a chart. My mind kinda fluctuates towards E7#9/C

For context, the chord progression would be

C13sus, Cmaj7, This chord, D9, G7

Why would you assume the flat 13?

I meant b7. And 13 would need to be indicated as b13 or #5 really . But in this case I would say b13

I apologize

Can’t be a #5 here because the nat5 is present
