It looks like you canceled that domain registration and received a refund. Once canceled, a domain is out of your control and cannot be transferred. You will need to wait until the domain registrar has released the domain into the pool of available domains again. This can take a few weeks and does carry a slight risk that someone else will snap up the domain before you are able to register it again.
I can try and reverse the cancellation. I will let you know if I am successful, it typically takes 12-48 hours.
If successful, you will need to re-purchase the yearly domain registration. Then you will be able to use the domain here on WordPress.com or point your domain to a new webhost using these instructions:
Or transfer to a new registrar (once 60 days have passed from registration) using these instructions:

Many thanks for your detailed reply. Can you let me know to whom should I re-purchase the yearly domain registration if you try and reverse the cancellation? Do you mean I need to re-purchase the same plan that I cancelled? Thank you.

You would not need to repurchase the plan, but you would need to repurchase the domain registration ($18/yr).
I would send you a manual payment link to do so.

I found another domain instead. But thank you very much for the help. Have a nice weekend.
