Pagkalipas ng isang taon, muling magbabalik-telebisyon si Lauren dahil sa upcoming GMA Afternoon Prime soap na Legally Blind. "I've been gone for a year already and I'm back," masayang bahagi ng aktres.

"Yes, [Legally Blind is] worth the wait! You can have so many projects and they come and go. But when the right project is meant for you, I think it is worth the wait," pahayag niya.

Ayon kay Lauren, mayroon daw siyang baon sa kanyang showbiz comeback. Aniya, "[Expect] a new and improved version of me. [I'll be playing] a different role this time so hopefully with everything that I experienced in the entire year [while I'm away], I can bring something new to the table."

Tulad ng kanyang previous roles, isa na namang kontrabida si Lauren sa Legally Blind. "If you'll look at it black and white, medyo kontrabida pa rin siya but then compared to the other roles that I've done in the past, mas human siya. Hindi lang siya basta gagawin ko 'to just because I'm the bad person and because I have to do something evil. It really all comes with her pain, her past, her struggles," saad niya.

Gagampanan niya ang karakter na si Charie, ang kapatid ng role ni Kapuso actress Janine Gutierrez. Bukod sa kanila, kabilang din sina Mikael Daez, Marc Abaya at Rodjun Cruz sa bagong Kapuso teleserye.
