Dealing with Sequence of dependent Functions

I have several functions that rely on remote resource to return a result. This remote resource has a lot of errors or unexpected response that I can not change. There is a sequence of functions that each depends on the results of the function before. The logic of each function is different.

For example:

bool remoteFunction(string resource, string parameter = "")
{
// for example request
//for simplicity this is considered a request, but each function has different logic
return request.Url("example.com" + resource, parameter);
}

var firstResult = remoteFunction("a");                  //1st step
var secondResult = remoteFunction("b", firstResult);    //2nd step
var thirdResult = remoteFunction("c", secondResult);    //3rd step
var fourthResult = remoteFunction("d", thirdResult);    //4rth steo

What I want to do is:

• Keep retrying to do the function until it return the result we want. This can be done inside or outside the function.
• I want to be able to jump back from one function to a previous one and continue through the flow. i.e: jump from 4th step to 2nd step and continue from there.

What is the best design to do this ?

Thanks for the help

Clarification: To be more clear, I only want to go back in the sequence only if a function throws an exception. i.e: if 4rd function throws an exception, i have to go back to 1st and continue from there.
