insouciantly
In carefree manner
Insouciantly means in a carefree, unconcerned manner—with a breezy indifference to consequences or expectations.
The word suggests someone unbothered by what might worry others: She insouciantly tossed her resignation letter on the desk and walked out.
It carries a hint of stylish nonchalance, sometimes admirable, sometimes irritating.
