You don't need regex. You can simply check if word in fileContents. Also, I changed list to paths because list is a built-in python keyword.

import os

paths = os.listdir(r'C:\Users\project')

def files_with_word(word:str, paths:list) -> str:
    for path in paths:
        with open(path, "r") as f:
            if word in f.read():
                yield path

#if you need to do something after each found file
for filepath in files_with_word("บัญชีรายรับ", paths):
    print(filepath)

#or if you just need a list
filepaths = [fp for fp in files_with_word("บัญชีรายรับ", paths)]
