There's No Turning Back (Elara and Harvey) novel Chapter 55

Elara smiled, looking calm and unbothered. "Mr. Fisher, don't tell me you don't actually want to divorce me?"

Harvey let out a cold scoff. "It would be much more annoying if you kept clinging to me afterward."

Elara mimicked his tone, just as dismissive. "You're overthinking things."

The court clerk handed them their divorce certificates. Elara glanced at the photo on hers, where she was smiling brightly. She curled her lips in satisfaction.

Bambi shook her head. "Mommy gave me a new name, and I love it."

Harvey's expression stiffened. "You're not called Bambi anymore?"

"Yes, I want to be called Merida. Merida Jones. It's a bit longer than Bambi, but it represents someone strong, confident, and passionate."
