That is not a case for nested styles. You have a paragraph style for the headline, another style for the text. Make a next style in the headline. This will switch with a normal return to the text style. 

in your image is a grave problem. You used an empty paragraph to create space between the headline and text. That must never be done. Define a space after in the headline style or a space before in the text style.

Why did you specify a character style?  In this situation not useful.

Hi @rehana36276218 , Also, the hard return is creating two paragraphs, so as Willy suggests Nested Styles only work inside of a single paragraph—you need to create two paragraph styles, one for the header and one for the text. You might look at the new Style Pack feature:

You could use a soft return, which would not create a new paragraph, but you would be limited in the formatting of the head, e.g. no alignment, space below etc., so I’m guessing it would not work for you.
