It's a citrus of some sort. The seed from any citrus fruit will not breed true and look like it's parent. Leaf shape is less readily used as the same shape can be present in many plants. The flower is the giveaway here.
No matter which citrus, if you care for it, you will get a nice green plant with woody trunk. It will have leathery, dark green, shiny leaves. Flowers can be very perfumy. You may or may not have the flowers turn into a fruit, but if it does, it will probably revert to a less tasty version.
Don't overwater it. Watch for spider mites and mealy bug. Shower it down every so often to keep it clean and sunny. Give it lots of sun, outdoors for the summer, if possible, acid fertilizer, prune yearly, check for insects when you bring it indoors, and let it dry out between waterings. It will last a lifetime.
It looks like a Hoya to me..

There is a phone app called plant identifier that allows you to snap a photo of the plant and it tells you what it probably is.
It looks like a HOYA plant. If they get enough sun the have a fragrant smell to them. Mine never did that though.
Looks like Hoya.
Don't dead head the flower base. They re-bloom from the same nub. Lightly brush dried blooms away.
I had several beautiful plants that I started from cuttings of my grandmother's plant. Most died when I lived in an RV while my home was being built. I have a small three leaf plant that made it through.
My Grandmother called her plant "Hawaiian Tears" because nectar drips from the very fragrant flowers.
