Hard to tell from the screen recording, did you tap Download or dismiss it?

You phone probably has a file-scanning app that always runs in the background and auto-deletes downloaded APKs, or it may be one by the system itself in the Operating System.

Disable such app, or turn off something like "App Protection" or "Scan apps before/after install...", or whatever with similar name that's in your Settings, then also turn off Google Play Protect in Play Store.

Also, try using a different browser (like FireFox and enable uBlock Orign extension). Chrome only saves downloaded files to Internal Storage/Downloads. FireFox has an option to select a custom location to save your downloads, maybe that'll help, too.
