How do I remove floating reader menu from my iPad screen?

I am trying to get rid of this floating reader but no matter what I am turning off it just doesn’t leave my screen. Any advise would be helpful . This is what I see when it’is collapsed, when it is opened and when I click the three dots buttons. Voice over is not on.
