Nolan reacted immediately. With one swift motion, he flipped the table at the masked men and grabbed Stephen before jumping through the window. Luckily, they were on the second floor, which was not that high of a jump.

Nolan had been through enough tough scrapes in the past-most of thefn thanks to Ethan- to know how to handle a jump like that, so he landed on his feet without a hitch.

Nolan pulled him up. "Come on!"

The hitmen did not shoot due to the distance and the overwhelming crowd on the street. They were not confident enough to take the shot. More importantly, they were there for Nolan, not Stephen. If they accidentally hurt Stephen, they would be in huge trouble.
