The first physical page is apparently a Word Cover Page which does not get numbered or count in the page numbering.

 

You need a Section Break before the fourth physical page, the one where you want to start showing page numbers. This should probably be an Odd-Page section break but could be a Next-Page section Break.

Edit the header or footer that contains your page numbering. In the new section, click on the link to previous so that you are not linked to the previous section's header/footer.

Then, in the old section where you do not want the numbering, select the page number and delete it.
