Ok, I think I understand now ;)

Just don't use two paragraph for chapter number and chapter name: 
between the number and the name of the chapter insert a Shift-Enter to 
break the line. This way both lines will be considered by Writer as a 
single paragraph and you'll get only one page break. And don't worry: 
Writer's TOC will ignore the line break so everything will be OK. NOTE: 
I'm using this method on my own book in order to get a two line heading.
