Add entity records to list

I used RetrieveMultiple to retrieve records of entity B and in the successCallBack function I want to cycle results to add them to a variable which represents the list of these records, but I'm not sure that it's a correct approach and If I should better use more specific classes or methods to reach my goal and keep track of records.

General scenario: I have my Javascript function in the form of entity E, which is associated with Entity B.
I need to retrieve all records of Entity A associated with the records of B which are linked to this E.

So here I'm retrieving the B records which are linked to this E, and storing them into a variable which will be used in the retrieveMultiple of records A.

Here is my code:

var recordsB;
var formContext = executionContext.getFormContext();
var targetId = formContext.data.entity.getId();
var recordsA;

// retrieve records B associated with this record E:
        Xrm.WebApi.retrieveMultipleRecords("entityB", "?$select=recordB_Id, recordA_id,&$filter=entityE_Id eq"   targetId).then(

            function success(result) {
                 for (var i = 0; i < result.entities.length; i  ) {
//                    recordsB.push(result.entities[i]);
//                }
            },
            function (error) {
                window.alert(error.message);
            }

        );

function success(result) { var n = result.entities.length; for (var i = 0; i < n; i ) { var entity = result.entities[i]; console.log(entity); recordsB.push(entity["entityBid"]); if(entity["_recordAid_value"]!==null) recordsA.push(entity["_recordAid_value"]); } }
