Resize the width of specific table cell without affecting others

I want the table column width stays at 50% but resize the highlighted row like in the picture without affecting others.

I use 

white-space: nowrap;

enter image description here

UPDATED

I solved the problem by this.

table.border-outline tr:nth-child(2) .table-share-row-even:nth-child(2) .data-column{
    position: absolute;
    white-space: nowrap;
    right: -1px;
}

HTML table behavior is fixed and very difficult to manipulate. You can read more about this here. This is why most people do NOT use table tags to create a table, but instead make something called a div table - a table made out of div tags. You can do what you are wanting using a div table like this:

.div-table {
    display: table;
    width: 300px;
}
.div-table-row {
    display: table-row;
    background-color: #ccc;
}
.div-table-row:nth-child(even) {
    background-color: white;
}
.div-table-col {
    float: left;
    display: table-column;
}
.div-table-col:nth-child(odd) {
    width: 20%;
}
.div-table-col:nth-child(even) {
    width: 80%;
    text-align: right;
}
<div class="div-table">
  <div class="div-table-row">
    <div class="div-table-col">Share Series</div>
    <div class="div-table-col">VEON ADS (NASD)</div>
  </div>
  <div class="div-table-row">
    <div class="div-table-col">Time</div>
    <div class="div-table-col">02/27/2019 16:00 (GMT-05:00)</div>
  </div>
  <div class="div-table-row">
    <div class="div-table-col">Currency</div>
    <div class="div-table-col">USD</div>
  </div>
  <div class="div-table-row">
    <div class="div-table-col">Market</div>
    <div class="div-table-col">NASDAQ</div>
  </div>
  <div class="div-table-row">
    <div class="div-table-col">ISIN</div>
    <div class="div-table-col">US91822M1062</div>
  </div>
</div>
