Stopping the pill, how does this effect my cycle

Hi, I know that I'm more than likely being paranoid, but I do tend to overthink things.

I finished my last round of contraceptive pills on Sunday 19th August, and the withdrawal bleeding began on Wednesday 29th August for a few days.

On that Wednesday, I got carried away with the alcohol, and had a one night stand, very enjoyable mind, but careless none the less. We did use contraception, so some wits remained with me.

I am just a bit confused when it comes to stopping the pill, and if there was any chance that I would have ovulated straight away, or whether ovulation will happen two weeks after the withdrawal bleeding.

Basically I am just scared that there is a remote possibility that I could have conceived that night.
