Missing Disk Space After deleting Bootcamp Partition on Catalina

I deleted my Bootcamp partition through Bootcamp Assistant using Restore option.

Windows Bootcamp size was 50GB.

After that when I checked the Disk Utility, It didnot show the Bootcamp volume

But the 50 gb storage was missing from my 256 total disk Space.

But it showed 8GB data volume (NTFS).

I have referrred other articles on the support forum but I am hesitant to erase my data or drive...

In this post the OP has volume shown as FREE SPACE but NOT in my case.

Output of some commands I have tried:

  1. diskutil list
  2. diskutil apfs list

Thank you.

Output of the Command i ran

There is an ERROR in the log as

Do I need to worry about it?
