brazenly
In audacious fashion
Brazenly means in a bold, shameless manner—openly doing something typically hidden or disapproved of: She brazenly lied to the committee, He brazenly cheated on the exam while the teacher watched.
The word implies not just wrongdoing but a refusal to conceal it, suggesting defiance or indifference to judgment.
