If the files were permanently deleted then it may not be possible to recover them. If I were you, I'd contact Support directly to see if there's anything they can do. They don't work on weekends so you'll need to wait a few days for a response.
In the meantime, verify that no one has access to your account. Change your password (reset it if needed), enable multi-factor authentication, and review the sessions and devices connected to your account on your Security page. Personally, I'd clear all sessions and devices and relink those that you're in control of.
