In this sentence, I believe they are using "retirarse" to mean that the writer "went back to his office."
In English, sometimes we use the phrase "I am going to retire to the bedroom for the night" which is a very old way of saying "I am leaving to go stay in my room."
I believe this is the Spanish version of that verb usage, "to retire."
