idk why you keep it harder to read man, you can just simply make it like this. as a beginner Its hard for me to read your code.

//REST API demo in Node.js
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
const fs = require('fs');
const port = 3000

app.get('/getUsers', function(req, res){
fs.readFile(__dirname + "/" + "users.json", 'utf8', function(err, data){
console.log(data);
res.end(data); // you can also use res.send()
});
})

app.listen(port, () => {
console.log(`app is listening on port ${port}`)
})
