Inadvertently / without knowing it

Could you tell me what the correct word is and how to say this?

Is inadvertently correct? Could you give me another word? Is “without even knowing” correct ?

He saved my life inadvertently/without even knowing it. Had it not canceled our date. I probably would have been shot outside movie theater waiting for him.

thank you

'inadvertently' would not be my first choice. To my ear it suggests more than anything else a failure to do something correctly because of an oversight.
