Unable To Import Array From `.txt` File

I have an app in flask but in my main.js file I can't import an array from a .txt file. It's better to create a file like start.js

let  fs = require("fs")
let readFileLines = filename =>
  fs
    .readFileSync(filename)
    .toString('UTF8')
let arr = readFileLines('File.txt');
console.log(arr)

and prompt the command: node start.js

logs the arr correctly while in my main.js

function myFunction() {
  let fs = require("fs")
  let readFileLines = filename =>
  fs
    .readFileSync(filename)
    .toString('UTF8')
  let arr = readFileLines('File.txt');
  return arr
}


text: myFunction(),

it doesn't return the arr . I need it to load data into my plotly and if I try to do this test function it goes well

function myFunctionTest() {
  arr = ["1","2"];
  return arr
}
