Bonsai Garenia Problem - Please Help Me

I got a beautiful gardenia bonsai as a gift 2 days ago. I had it on my desk at work overnight. Yesterday morning, I noticed that 7 leaves had white spots and some of the them were turning whiter and whiter. In the afternoon it had 10 and now 12. I noticed that a little part of the root is over the dirt, if that is releavant. Other than that it looks pretty but no flowers yet. I thought it was due to the artificial light in the office. I read that it is also and outdoor plant and I read about the morning sun and - afternoon shade so I brought it home and put it on the front porch. In SC we are having 100 F weather.

My questions are:

- Are the white spots going to kill my plant?

- Should I move it inside until it get cooler?

- Is it too bad to move the plant in and out?

PLease give me suggestions, i love that plant!

THANK YOU!
