The Great Gatsby
The Great Gatsby, I rushed out and found
Could you please tell me if "I rushed out and found her mother's maid" means "I rushed out in order to find her mother's maid" or just "I rushed out and then I met her mother's maid" in the following excerpt from the chapter Four of The Great Gatsby:
She began to cry—she cried and cried. I rushed out and found her mother’s maid and we locked the door and got her into a cold bath. She wouldn’t let go of the letter.
Thank you.
