Hi Priscillah

I think you could just use your chapter title paragraph style to generate the table of contents and add the “Chapter x: “ to the TOC paragraph style you set in the TOC settings box for that numbering level. However, if you are using a numbered list to increment the “Chapter x” in the main document, then you will need to use a different numbered list for your chapter title paragraph style otherwise it will increment twice in each chapter.

Depending on why you are using two paragraph styles in the main text, it might that you could keep the chapter titles in one paragraph and use a character style for the numbering to achieve the different format. If you are doing it for layout purposes rather than text formatting then of course that might force two paragraphs.
