I’m In A Fake Relationship With The Sub-Male Lead

To survive, I have to break off the engagement between my brother’s friend—the second male lead—and the villainess.
That’s when it all began, my attempts at “breakup-lighting” with the sub male lead, Alperen.
“That fortune-teller I met last time said my brother is incompatible with red. Especially red-haired women!”
“Do you actually believe that?”
“Ren-oppa, bad women are useless, you know. What matters is a kind woman. Especially one who says you’re handsome, praises you, and dotes on you! Ah, and don’t even look at anything red. Especially red hair!”
I was only trying to avoid the prison ending…
Eight years later.
“Rodelia. Could you pretend to be my lover for a while? Just until I find the right person—like you said.”
Is this finally the payoff for all my effort?
The man who decided to annul his engagement has asked me to be his stand-in girlfriend.
Of course, I planned to quit once the original heroine showed up, but—
“Can I kiss you?”
…Wait, is this how “contract dating” usually goes?
