Question Bonsai help please

Hello everyone,

I recently purchased a small bonsai that has tiny white star-shaped flowers on it. They are in sprays or clusters at the top of the plant. The leaves are small, oval and a medium green with smooth edges. I've been searching the internet and have found nothing to identify this bonsai.

Can anyone help me to identify this bonsai please? I would like to know what it is so I know how to care for it. I have attached 4 pics.

Thank you very much!

It was purchased at Home Depot with no hang tag and the sales-clerk didn't know what it is either.

Definitely NOT a serissa.

Did the seller of this plant have any ideas as to what it is? It could be about a hundred different things....
