Following seedling grew itself, most probably a non-flowering plant without seed ? But I do recognize cotyledons.
This pot has healthy growing Jatropha plant.

1Most probably from the genus Phyllanthus, hard to say which exact species though. We'll need flowers and fruits to determine that correctly.– bennSep 25, 2021 at 11:24

This plant belongs to the genus Phyllanthus of the family Phyllanthaceae. It can be Phyllanthus niruri or Phyllanthus amarus or Phyllanthus urinaria, commonly known as Child Pick-A-Back, Gale Of Wind, Carry Me Seed, Stonebreaker.
It is a flowering plant, though they too tiny to spot and blooms under the leaves. So are the fruits.
That's why it is often called as seed-under-leaf also.
These plants are said to have medicinal values, though I would not recommend to use them as there is insufficient evidence of its safety and effectiveness due to a lack of research.
It grows easily, does not require much care, if you want to keep it.

1Thanks a lot for looking into it. I just started gardening and do not want to just pull out any plant that grew itself, specially if I know they are dicots. Its seed must have came with the air or in the soil manure mix I bought from local Nursery. Not closing this thread until it grows flowers and fruit, need seeds cuz I love germination.
