Note Gone Missing and Permission

I created a note, me as the owner of the note, and shared with my family via iMessage less than a month ago. Both of my parents use iPhones, both my personal and work laptops are Macs, a MacBook Air and a MacBook Pro, with my iCloud account logged on. So everything was supposed to sync properly. This morning, that specific note just disappeared from my Notes App, i.e. couldn't find it on my phone or laptop. I went back to iMessage and found the link to the shared note to my family. They couldn't open it either. When I tried to open it with the shared link, this is the message I got

Can anyone please help me with it? I'd really appreciate your time and response!

Missing Notes from Notes App on iPhone, iPad

You can't find it in the recently deleted folder, then probably you have not deleted any Notes.

(See the GIF below)

The options are...

Check in your iCloud account: https://www.icloud.com
Check your email accounts that you had but removed. Because many of the accounts have notes synced like Google, Yahoo, Outlook, Exchange etc...

You may have shared the Notes over AirDrop
You may have sent the Notes via iMessage or email to someone
Did you backup on Mac/PC via iTunes? Restore from iTunes.
- Take a fresh BackUp (Or else you will lose all new data, photos, Notes etc)
- Restore from Old BackUp via iTunes (Not iCloud)
- Retrieve your Note(s)
- Restore from New BackUp via iTunes (Not iCloud)

Do not restore from iCloud backup.

iCloud backup doesn't include information already stored in iCloud, like Contacts, Calendars, Bookmarks, Mail, Notes, Voice Memos, shared photos, iCloud Photos, Health data, call history, and files you store in iCloud Drive.

Use Notes on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
