What is the meaning of "retrieves "? is it mean "rescue" in this sentence?

Jeff retrieves me a half hour later, summoned by Jonah Thompson, who found his number on my cell phone, which I handed to him when he asked me the name of an emergency contact person shortly after I puked all over his shoes. I’m in the lobby ladies’ room when he arrives, hunched over a toilet even though my stomach feels as squeezed dry as an empty water bottle. It’s up to one of Jonah’s coworkers to fetch me from the stall. A tiny bird of a reporter named Emily, who nervously calls to me from just inside the door like I’m someone contagious, someone to be feared.
